Does a recommendation letter from a doctor look good?

Do not have a family member write a letter of recommendation for you. Choose someone who can comment objectively about your skills and personality. Examples could include a supervisor at your job or volunteer work, a coach, etc. IMO whether that person is a doctor or not is secondary compared to someone who really knows you well enough to write a detailed letter commenting specifically on your strengths in a personal way… But definitely not your parents!
