Ok so thoughts? Basically, I’ve already shadowed anesthesiologists and surgeons at a major hospital and I figured I wanted to shadow someone at a local smaller clinic to compare the experiences and lifestyle to get an idea of what type of environment I’d like. I know a dentists is NOT a physician, but will it help my application for med school? I figured I’d still be able to learn some diseases, skills, patient interaction, etc.? Should I do it or am I wasting my time?
