A strong letter from you shall go a long way in boosting my residency application. I have attached my CV, Letter request form containing my AAMC ID and a summary of all the things I was able to do and learn during my rotation.

I appreciate all of the time and energy that you have invested in me and hope that you will consider writing a letter of recommendation. Please let me know if you need any additional information. I would be grateful if you would write me a letter of recommendation.

Thanking You.
Yours Sincerely,

Dear Dr. ABC,

Hope you are doing good.

It was a wonderful learning experience to rotate in ______ Unit under your able guidance in Month, 20XX. 

You have inspired me to be a better person and clinician and I have learned the importance of doctor-patient relationship from you. I was glad to be able to form a bond of trust and faith with the patients during my rotation. I recall that one patient whom I followed throughout the course of her transplant, hugged me on the last day and said, "Thank you for cheering and motivating me every morning to walk and eat. I will miss you and will find you if I get the cancer again and I wish you go into Geriatrics." that moment was the happiest of my rotation and it was all possible because of you. You have a dynamic personality and provide the best possible care to all your patients in a selfless way. I was very grateful that day as I felt that I have taken a step into becoming a better person and caring physician as you are. I am very obliged and thankful to you as you have surely helped me to communicate and build a strong rapport and trust with the patients.
