Speaking from experience as someone who's usually gone combat medic whenever the rest of the team green-lights doing so - by spreading the meds around, particularly the donks, you can free up both inventory space and some responsibility. It's important, of course, to keep on-hand some of the meds, particularly to help stunlocked teammates.
After you distribute a few meds, I usually find it easy to ask for teammates' spare revolver bullets, or even the revolver itself. With just one teammate's revolver and extra ammo, you usually have enough firepower to hold off enemies while you wait for your teammates to require your healing.
I think the combat medic is already strong enough, with one caveat - the rest of the team is willing to properly function as a team. Which is, imo, the ideal position of the medic; trying to heal a disjointed team usually takes up enough time that you won't burn through your starting ammo anyways.
