.but let me add email is not sucha bad option provided its well written (consise and precise)and with a good resume and cv attached, coz here they do read most emails and respond to it...(i speak from experience)...personal meeting is a good option.. but its not always possible..so u cud use the mail route too..!!!
I would say that it's the easiest way to find an observership if you know who is responsible for making a decision. In academia there are certain people who are in charge for just observerships, and it is better to target them directly by e-mails... Otherwise, sending an e-mail to a random person on the floor could be useless...

After many, many emails and numerous phone calls the one thing that worked for me was a CONTACT. One of my cousin's friends introduced me to 2 doctors and I managed to find 2 observerships - one in a private clinic and the other in a hospital.
Ask all your friends, relatives, neighbours and so on. Good luck.

1st decide that in which city you gona stay when u ll come to USA. once decided that, look for all the universities and hospitals in that area. (U can search for your desired hospitals here http://www.ama-assn.org/vapp/freida/srch/ )
Over there you can select the speciality and state where u want to look for and that site will open a list containing names of the hospital n by openin them one by one you can get a direct link to their homepage or you can type their name in google search which will open the link of their home page.
Once you are in the homepage, try to look for the emails of the faculty members in whole of the hospital. and trust me you will find them if u ll use ur brain. It might be difficult initially but once you know how to get to the emails of faculty members, it will take only about 15-20 min to send as many as 200 emails to a program faculty.
Write a standard email in which u ll introduce urself, ur brief credentials review etc and will attach ur resume to that and bcc that email to as many emails as you can. Sample email can be seen here

but ofcourse you will not copy paste that as there r thousands of other people online reading these patterns. so get an idea from there n try to make one of your own.
By repeating this procedure you can send emails to most of the hospitals in ur desired city. If you still get no response then move onto next city n repeat the process over there.
