interview

<p>i have an interview with a plastic surgeon for a shadowing opportunity. Im not sure what kind of questions he would ask though. Any ideas?</p>

<p>Wow, an interview just to job shadow? That seems pretty formal. Generally, the conversations I've had with doctors have been pretty low key discussions. Current topics in medicine might come up (malpractive, medicare, etc.) but I was generally asked "why medicine," "what specialty interests you and why?" I also ask a lot of questions when I'm talking with doctors because they serve the dual purpose of not only showing that I'm interested, but also I get my questions answered (for free, lol).
Knowing basic anatomy, for when I actually did a round of surgeon shadowing, was also important. I didn't know much at the time, but the surgeons seemed content with me knowing very little. ("Yay! He knows the heart has 4 chambers," lol) The more you know, the more you can ask.</p>

<p>ya im pretty set with college anatomy and physiology...that plus pharmacology</p>
