Description

Shiur on the obligation for doctors to pray, and the rule of "oseik b'mitzvah patur min hamitzvah" which exempts a person who is fulfilling one mitzvah from any obligation to fulfill other mitzvot. What are the parameters of this rule, and how do they apply to a physician who is seeing patients, or recording medical data? Similar to shiur here, but with less information on certain cases and more on others.
