Hello,
There are lots of medical careers, doctor, nurse, paramedic, combat medical technician, environmental health technician, pharmacist, pharmacy technician, radiographer, biomedical scientist, dentist, dental nurse, veterinary surgeon, veterinary technician, healthcare assistant, physiotherapist etc.. see the Army jobs website here for the full list of regular medical roles https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles
All of the above careers have advantages and disadvantages and will suit different people. Financially the military in general is a fairly good option, salaries are available on the Army jobs website, or alternatively the Armed Forces Pay Review is a useful reference https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/armed-forces-pay-review-body
I hope that helps!
