Shadowing a doctor would be a good start. I don’t mean just coming in for a couple of hours and seeing a few cool surgeries. I mean following the doctor for the entire workday and realizing what it’s like to be on your feet for 10 hours or what it’s like to spend 40% of your time tying notes on the computer to cover your @$$ later on if the patient decides to sue.
