Shadowing?

<p>My Medical Advisor is requiring me to do 10-15 doctor shadows.
In his letter he mentions that I need a HIPPA certification. Can anyone help me with the process for this?
Also, will medical schools really care about my 10-15 shadows?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>Most hospitals offer HIPPA certification as part of volunteering.</p>

<p>10-15 shadowing experiences is nice to have, but volunteering is much more important in my opinion.</p>

<p>Who is your “medical advisor”? And would you be shadowing fifteen different doctors (not a good idea), or one doctor fifteen times (very good idea)?</p>
