Dear Susan,

I am writing this letter to express my deepest appreciation for giving me the opportunity to work for your organization. I would like you to know that during the weeks I spent working with you I learned a great deal of information that I would never have been able to learn in school. I thank you for giving me the chance to sit in on patient visits, and listen in on phone consultations, it is amazing how much information I absorbed through these two procedures. I also feel that I learned through the research I did for you. The facts that I gleaned will not only make me a better physician in the future, but will also enable myself to become a healthier person. I hope to some day use the knowledge I got from working with you, and further information I hope to acquire about alternatives to orthodox medicine in my own medical practice. Thanks to you I now know that a good physician has to “treat the body and not the disease.”

Lastly, I would like to acknowledge the wonderful work that you are doing. I believe that your patients are lucky that they have a person like yourself to turn to in their time of need. Few doctors administer to their patients with the same compassion and dedication as you do to yours.

Again, thank you for your time and advice. You were a great boss to work for; you truly made my senior service projects a learning experience.

Sincerely,

Alina V.
