As a job-shadowing intern, I have had a marvelous experience learning
more about the medical profession. I have been shadowing a physician
who specializes in Internal Medicine. Not only have I learned about
what this job entails, but I have also learned about the importance of
the doctor-patient relationship, and how positive, personable
interaction can make the difference. The physician that I shadow
happens to be a female. I feel like I lucked out here because there
aren't too many female physicians in the Valley. I shadowed a male
physician last year, and it has been interesting to compare and contrast
how each doctor takes care of their patients. The doctor I shadow
currently is always looking out for me, which I appreciate. She is good
at taking time to explain things to me. I learn something new each
time I am in her office. I am grateful to her for this experience, and I
am not looking forward to it ending. In the future, I hope to be the
kind of doctor she is.
