Can I Still Become A Doctor When I Have Had A Pfa Against Me?

Card image cap

Long story short my crazy ex filed a PFA when I went through her iPad and found her cheating. She lied under oath to paint me as a dangerous guy and she’s scared for her safety. It was under the prong of “in fear of imminent serious bodily harm” I never physically abused her or any of the other stuff a PFA is for. The judge ruled a 90 day (possibly because he didn’t fully believe her but to play it safe) usually PFAs are for a year. She spoke and cried and manipulated as she always does, which is funny bc she was the primary aggressor, anyways I think the judge wanted to end the hearing bc she was begging for him to approve. Kind of shameless. But I just wanted her out of my life. So I didn’t appeal or fight it harder.

I think on my record it says 90-day PFA or something. Idk I’ve never dealt with anything legal. Anyone have any insight, if I were to pursue med school and residency and stuff, would this affect me? It really sucks. But hey you live and you learn. Not everyone is decent.
