Are these grades good enough for medicine?

It depends what university you're thinking about. However medicine is extremely competitive and top uni's will be looking for As and A*sa

They're okay but they're not amazing. You'll need to avoid universities that use GCSEs as one of the primary tools to decide who to invite for interview. These include Cardiff, Oxford, QUB etc. Have a look here as well: http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/wiki/Applying_to_Medical_School_using_your_Strengths.
