Trying to find the best medical school for me

Ignoring stats, I’m trying to find the best medical school which I should be aiming for.

I have eliminated:
courses which enforce intercalation
medical schools outside of England

Am I correct in thinking the main thing which separates medical schools is:

location (bigger city could lead to more opportunities/conferences/networking and that London is best?)

research output (i should eliminate non-Russell group unis to maximise my exposure to research to build those skills to be competitive for speciality training)

teaching quality (me personally i like variety rather than just lectures) and student satisfaction

and other factors such as reputation dont matter if I stay in the NHS and want to stick to clinical work.

Am I being logical in prioritising these three factors? Is there something I’m missing? And which factor is most important/least important?

I personally don’t care about cost, the social aspect that much and don’t mind living in a city or some village.

Is there any unis that come to mind based on this criteria?

Thanks,
