SAMPLE LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION (LOR)


Here's a Sample LOR I received from my friend over email - shall post more samples as they become available from contributors

Sample 1:

"Dear Program Director,

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Dr. ABC, who was first introduced to me when when he came to XYZ hospital as an Extern, which he started in July 2006.

I found Dr. ABC to be a very hard working, warm, conscientious and delightful individual who showed much interest in learning. He took very good care of patients who were assigned to him and he made sure that all the work-up was done before the morning rounds, where he actively participated. His responsibilities included taking histories and physicals, SOAP notes, collecting lab reports from the previous day, writing transfer and discharge summaries and also participating in morning reports and noon conferences. He also did some excellent presentations. He has excellent clinical skills and displays them with mature mannerisms.

ABC is a very humble individual who gets along well with his peers and the entire medical team. It is therefore without reservations that I recommend him to you for any residency program that he may be seeking. I am sure he will be a valuable asset to your organization.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need further information.

Sincerely yours,

PQRST, MD
XYZ medical Center"

Try your best to keep them less than a year old :-) Technically, old ones will be accepted by ERAS for application, but fresher ones are recommendable
