A "hi!" from my side, too. A subscription to Debian-Med is certainly a good idea. I do not know about how much you personally are an IT person besides your medical education. My experience says that there are some bi-educated people around but even for these the adaptation of software for local needs is problematic - and if it is only that they need to work and write bills from day one and that they do not have the time to elaborate on the parallel installation of another system.
A way around this may be the involvement of a local Linux Users group, a group of students, maybe together with some unemployed people for (self-paced) training, that could set up and maintain a system for your surgery(?) to your specification. Maybe the person who indicated Debian to you has some more ideas on how to bring Debian-Med's software to life at your place. You might want to read Debian-Med only as an educational summary of what is available and would need to specify the gap towards something that you could use productively. Feedback to the list I am certain to be much appreciated.
