Hey I'm getting pretty interested in staying west of the Mississippi for residency. I've heard a lot as far as the word on the street as to the "best" programs in the region, i.e. Denver for 4 years and Harbor for 3 years, etc.
What I am curious about is what are the real heavy academic sites and what are the places that stress clinical experience? I know this topic has been brought up before but I am most interested in programs in the West. Which programs have a good combination of both academics and clinical stuff? What are the up-and-coming but not-quite-there programs? Are there any good small community type programs out here? Note that I am not asking for a "top" program list, I think there are enough of those out here. Just looking for a survey of program types.
