Went to Georgetown for medical school, spent a lot of time around the anesthesiology department, though obviously the experience as a medical student vs. a resident can be quite different. One concern I had about the idea of staying was the strong CRNA/SRNA presence and some of my interactions with them, some seemed militant to me. The attendings, especially Dr. Wall (dept chair), Dr. Freeman (residency director), and pretty much everyone I ever worked with as a student were amazing, they are the reason I chose anesthesiology. I didn't want to stay in DC, so it was low on my personal rank list. I think you would get decent training going there, but if you're looking for prestige or some hot shot academic career, you might want to look elsewhere. The residents all seemed very happy there, they were sharp, clinically competent. Most had strong reasons to be in the DC area. It is a great place to live, so if you are interested, definitely give it a look. Washington Hospital Center is kind of the equivalent of a county hospital for the District of Columbia and as a resident, you would spend most of your time there and at Georgetown University Hospital. As someone else mentioned, both are owned by MedStar. I never noticed this to have a negative impact on my med school training from what I could tell. The department itself is designed to function like a private practice embedded within an academic institution, or so I was told by one of the old timer attendings. Call schedule did not seem too ridiculous, but that is just from comments overheard by the actual residents. Not sure if they still do this, but a couple years ago they had short lectures every morning before cases started, some were simple case word reviews put together by the residents, others were case conferences or topics covered by the attendings. For those not from there, the cost of living is pretty high, like any other large metropolitan area. If you have a reason to be there, don't hesitate to check out GTown, I think that overall it is a decent program with a lot to offer the right candidate.
