Hi!
I would just start asking around. Any family friends or relatives that have connections? Also try asking your PCP or other doctors. My doctor actually said that I could shadow her (I used to be pre-med). Get the word out that you are interested and call local hospitals and ask what they suggest. I'm not sure but privacy policies might make this a little difficult unless the patients okay it.
