Well said, bk613
That’s sums it up.
OP
If you looking for actual advice, I advise you to find your local Orthodox doctor and ask him how he did it/what obstacles he faced. If he’s frum today I’d imagine he’d be happy to discuss it with you.
I assume you understand that it’s difficult based in your questioning. I’m not a doctor, but some of my friends are, and I can’t say their level of frumkite was left unscathed throughout their medical education career.
Of my friends, the only one that stayed true to his upbringing was the one who had a very close relationship with his Ruv.
