After growing up in the midwest I moved to Charleston for a job after college. Ended up being dissatisfied, quit, and applied to med school. Thus, I lived in Charleston for many years and went to med school at MUSC which is an excellent medical univ. It's reputation is equivalent to Emory, Duke, Wake, UNC.
The medical college's anesthesia dept. has CT and pain fellows, so that may influence your decision. Beware there is also an CRNA school, so may have to compete with SRNAs for cases. There was also some flux in the adminstration (new dept chair) when I was a MS3. Attendings were the usual mix of cool people eager to teach and those hoping to intimidate. Again, all this from a med student perspective. All interns did two months of anesthesia (months 1 & 12), so they had a running start on CA-1. Didactics at 3PM with a flood of CRNAs breaking out residents, in-patient pre-ops to follow. On early days, many residents would head to Folly Beach to go surfing. I believe they've added a simulator since I left.
Current PD was one year ahead of me while in MS. When I was MS4 and he was an intern he warned me that you had to know the Fick eqn. for residency interviews and be ready to answer knowledge based questions. I would bet the farm that that is how he treats interviewees. But I don't know for sure.
I LOVE Charleston as a city: beautiful, historical, beaches, excellent restaurants and nightlife, and extremely polite. The downsides are heat/humidity for 9-10 months of the year, palmetto "bugs", and public schools that are less than acceptable; and it's geting very crowded which is a strain on the infrastructure as well as driving real estate very high.
In the end chose to rank MUSC 3rd or 4th, mainly because of the public school issue. Didn't want to have to send my kids to private school.
However... we go back every spring and rent a beach house. Family still loves Charleston. Wife and I just got back from a long weekend for just the two of us. It truly is a wonderful city!
Sorry so long-winded and (perhaps) slightly tangential, but that's my overall impression.
