All 1-on1 Shadowing experiences are currently suspended due to COVID-19.

While many students may have an interest in pursuing a career in medicine, few have an opportunity to experience a “day in the life” of a health care professional. Summit Health Cares 1-on-1 Shadowing program allows students 18 and older (who are interested in pursuing a career in medicine) to shadow a health care professional from Summit Health in a specialty area of interest for a day, providing unique insights into doctor-patient interactions, testing, exams and procedures.

“The experience I had with Dr. Dardanello was quite like no other,” said Amanda, program participant. “I had so much fun shadowing, which reinforced my desire to become a pediatrician.”

*Please note:

• Only one (1), single-day shadowing opportunity per calendar year is allowed per student.
• Summit Health is not a teaching facility and therefore ALL shadowing experiences are observation only.
• Due to physician availability and volume of requests, we will try to match as many requests as possible but completion and submission of an application and required paperwork does not guarantee that a shadowing match will be fulfilled.

Please check back periodically for updates.
