A doctor I know once told me that any residency can be Shomer Shabbos (Sabbath observant) if you know what you're doing. Then, in conversation, some of the things he would do when he was a resident came up and I was, well, stunned that he considered this to be observing Shabbos.
Now Dr. Daniel Eisenberg has put together a website intended to be a database of information about Shomer Shabbos residency programs (link). I hope that this webpage serves to alleviate the need for residents to break a few rules here and there, hopefully unintentionally.
