Shadow Placement for Private Practice
Shape healthcare’s future by mentoring, recruiting, and earning CME with ease.
From shadowing to hiring, stay in touch every step of the way
With ShadowSource, every student who shadows at your clinic becomes a long-term recruiting opportunity. We don’t just introduce future PAs – we help you build lasting connections.
As students advance through their careers, you stay in the loop. Their profiles grow with them, giving you direct access to a pipeline of passionate candidates who already know your organization – and are ready to come back.
Your impact goes beyond the bedside
By opening your doors to students, you’re nurturing future providers and helping your community thrive. Every hour spent with them is a gift that grows into lasting care and compassion.
Track it all with our customizable Administrator Dashboard
Our Administrator Dashboard makes it easy for office staff to manage license expiration dates, CME requirements, and renewal windows – all in one place. With just one user login, your practice can stay organized and in compliance without the usual paperwork headaches.
Teach, support, and get credit for it
ShadowSource makes it easier than ever to mentor future providers by streamlining the recommendation letter process with pre-filled templates, personalized prompts, and deadline reminders – helping you write stronger letters in less time.
Plus, by accepting students to shadow, you can earn up to 50% of your CME credits, turning your guidance into both professional growth and lasting impact.

Start Shadowing!
We believe healthcare shadowing opportunities should be more accessible for every student.
And ShadowSource is here to support you every step of the way.
ShadowSource matches students and providers together based on mutual availability, location, and specialty. Our algorithm helps fill schedules by making recommendations based on close matches, all while keeping everyone’s information confidential until right before the shadow appointment. If providers and/or managers want more control, they can choose to be more selective or add additional requirements to prospective shadowing opportunities.
