Note that I am not an expert, really – I hail from the Polish Wikipedia which has FlaggedRevs enabled for all articles (using a pretty simple configuration), and I played with it a bit on a private wiki.

If we apply FlaggedRevs to all medical articles (articles that have the WP:MED template on their talk page)
I'm not sure if this is possible, I think you currently have to make it possible to flag revisions of all articles on the wiki. This could possibly be developed, or could just be "enforced" using common sense, since these are trusted editors we're talking about anyway.
configured to display the latest article version, can we create a permission (say, Medicine Reviewer) that allows one to tag the revision log entry with a comment?
As far as I know, yes.
Would it interfere in any way with the normal practice of other editors who don't have that permission?
As far as I know, no. The information on whether a revision was flagged or not might be shown in the UI somewhere, but it shouldn't cause any editing problems, or any fancy buttons to appear for people without the permission to review.
