it really depends on where exactly u plan to go. most uk universities accept 3 a levels, but if u want a name brand uk uni i think having the 4th subject would help, but i think they look at ur 3 best subjects. i think most of them decide by grades first, then personal statement. the only other case i know is singaporean unis, where they only look at your grades, and i think the bare minimum is 2a* 2a for a generic not very popular major (i think CS requires 4a*, so take that as a baseline). keep in mind that medicine is THE hardest major subject to get into, even harder than CS, doesnt matter which uni, all the same.

for me, having taken phys/math/fmath/chem, it really is not that hard. math and fmath is mostly a matter of being good at moving symbols around and applying formulas, not much thinking required (as in proving theorems and whatnot). physics is mostly ok, just need understanding and trying to apply ur knowledge, only basic math required. chem is mostly just memorization.
basically, if u r dead set on medicine, prepare to spend a few months just grinding past year papers, and very possibly get rejected.
