Dear Ms. Maloney,
Thank you for your response. I am truly excited by the opportunity to observe family medicine practice at Greater Lehigh Family Medicine. My primary goal is to gain a comprehensive understanding of how family medicine operates in the United States.
I am deeply interested in the holistic approach of family medicine and its role as a primary point of care. I plan to apply for a family medicine residency, as I appreciate the wide variety of cases the specialty offers. Observing your practice would provide invaluable insight into the field's practical application in the US.
For comprehensive learning, I would greatly appreciate an observership from July 15th to August 30th, encompassing a total of seven working weeks. My ideal schedule would be Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday, with your practice hours of 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM.
I aim to maximize my learning experience while being respectful of your doctors' busy schedules. My focus is on observation and gaining knowledge; I have no specific hourly requirements. I am eager to spend as much time as possible shadowing Dr. Vasu and learning from other faculty members.
To facilitate my visa application, I kindly request an invitation letter from your practice stating my purpose as an observer and confirming the dates of my visit.
Thank you for your time and consideration, Ms. Maloney. I look forward to the opportunity to learn from your team.
Sincerely,
<PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>.

Hi Ashwin  

Hope you are doing well! Thank you for your kind words. My trip was wonderful.
July and August are fine months for you to spend time at GLFM. Dr. Singh is usually here seeing patients on Mon, Wed and Thurs. 
We also have Dr. Kristin Bresnan and Dr Anuja Rohatgi on other days including some Saturday mornings. 
Do you know what day/s of the week would fit your schedule best and are there specific week/s in July and August you are looking at. 
I am not sure what plans are for your schedule for this observation experience and how many hours you are hoping to complete. 
Look forward to hearing back from you. Take care
Judi
