Can a doctor miss his Salaah to save someone’s life?

I AM A DOCTOR BY PROFESSION,SOME TIMES WE MISS NAMAZ WHILE DOING THE SURGERY,AS THE NATURE OF OUR JOB WE CNAT LEFT SURGERY IN BETWEEN BECAUSE THE LIFE DEPEND ON IT.

HOW CAN WE OFFER PRAYER THAT WE MISS?

WILL THERE BE ANY EXCEPTION IN THIS CASE.

ANOTHER QUESTION 

AS BEEN DOCTOR SOMETIMES WE DONT GET TIME FOR TABLIQ, AS IN CASE OF OUR ABSENCE PATIENT SUFFERS

WHAT CAN WE DO IN HIS CASE?

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

1). If the nature of the surgery is such that any delay will aggravate the sickness or lead to death and there is no one else to fill the position, it is wājib (necessary) for you to continue with the surgery and perform the salah at a later time. If the time of salah expires, then you will have to make qadā of it.[1]

2). The backbone of tabligh is to take part in the local effort (maqāmi kām). Attending the local gasht/jawlah program, second gasht (bairūn gasht), daily mulāqāt, masjid ta‘līm, home ta‘līm, etc. all make up the local effort. Attend the programs as your schedule permits. Your obligation and responsibility in your medical practice should not be compromised due to spending time in tablīgh. When you have time off from practice, whether in weekends or holidays, then spend time in jamāt.  

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
