First for camaraderie

Reposting LW1 medic theorycrafting:

Early Counter-Terror:
Field Surgeon, Rapid Reaction, Paramedic, Opportunist
Field surgeon keeps the A-squad in action, RR for shotgun, paramedic so the squad doesn't slow down against mints, Opportunist rehabilitates the soldier for lategame. Can also go for council missions, you don't want to suppress thin men anyway.

Early Line Medic:
Suppression, Rapid Reaction, Smoke Grenade, Dense Smoke
The dense smoke rehabilitates late game suppression by allowing the medic to smoke himself before suppressing a dangerous target. RR vs S&M is arguable, the ability to kill 2 in overwatch is very useful earlygame even if it falls off quickly. Make them from high-aim low-will guys!

Late Line Medic:
Steadfast, Smoke and Mirrors, Smoke grenade, Drugs, Sprinter, Extra Conditioning
Psi, Versatile. Savior may replace EC depending on survivability.

Late Base Assault Medic:
Steadfast, Revive, Smoke Grenade, Drugs, Bombard, Packmaster
Lots of consumables, bombard to help throws in those nasty cover-deprived UFO corridors.

Pistols are Useful.
