mjohnson3604 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi, When I was looking in Chicago, contacted the Illinois APA and they gave a list of their members willing to have a student shadow. Kari in the office sent their emails/contact info, and I had to contact them individually to ask if they would let me shadow. Unfortunately, I don't still have that list (otherwise would send to yoU). Hope this helps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky2 Posted December 11, 2010 Author Share Posted December 11, 2010 yeah i found 2 in the chicago area, but am no longer shadowing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplicity Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I am actual member of the IAPA and I've sent loads of emails to ALL the listed PA-Cs and I got a few replies (2 or so) stating they can't accept anyone to shadow them at the moment for one reason or the other. I really wish it was easy to just find an individual(s) to shadow. I hope to find some eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simplicity Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 How'd you go about finding these individuals? Please, do share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer2013 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I am also looking to shadow a PA in the Chicago area! I will start shadowing a Derm PA soon but it is outside of Chicago and I'd also like to shadow someone in a different specialty/area as well. Thank you posters for the IAPA advice--I have contacted someone (leader from a specific area) from that org but I need to send a couple more emails. Haven't heard anything yet. If anyone has any "leads" I'd appreciate the info! Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer2013 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Oh, and an ad-on from my post right above this. I'm a recent college grad from a small public school in VA (2009, B.A. in International Relations) and am currently completing my masters in public administration in Chicago as well as my CNA certification (clinicals at a northside hospital). I am in the process of taking my pre-req classes as well. If any of you Chicagoland PA's on this site would be willing to let me shadow you, even for just a day (or you know someone who would) please let me know! Thanks so much.
