I am really torn between Colorado and Loma Linda and was hoping to get some input from those who are familiar with the 2. I realize the location is a big difference, but putting this aside, do you think one program has an edge over the other in terms of happiness, training, or opportunities after residency? I'm not sure where I want to practice ultimately and in what setting (pp vs academic) or if I will pursue fellowship training. Knowing this, I'm looking for a program that will provide me exceptionally well-balanced training and will offer all of the opportunities I mentioned above upon graduation and happiness while I am in the program. In your opinion, does one of these programs have a "stronger reputation" or any notable differences. The residents at both programs seemed pretty satisfied. I get the impression that Colorado may have a stronger reputation academically at least outside of California (though I realize neither one is an academic powerhouse in the Anesthesia realm). Is this accurate or even divergent enough to really consider? I am truly torn and would appreciate any insights. Many thanks!
