Event: Shadowing

Event Year: 2023

Dr. Murshed,

Thank you so much for letting me shadow you on August 11th, 2023. It was a wonderful opportunity for me to see the fascinating yet mystical world of neurology. I have always loved the brain, and shadowing you has fueled my excitement for the field! I also appreciate the lengths you went to teach me about the patients, diseases, and testing methods that characterize neurology. I learned so much from just a few short hours. Above all, it meant a lot that you stayed to answer all of my random questions about the field, residency, and life as a physician. I'm sure you remember how overwhelming medical school was, especially at the beginning, so I am grateful to have had the chance to ask you a variety of questions that put my mind at ease.

Thank you again for this great opportunity, and I definitely will be in touch as my journey progresses (especially if I maintain my interest in neurology)!

Sincerely,
Hailey Rizk
