MEDICINE: work experience?

Would you say that work experience in the hospital after the UCAS application deadline is useless? I have some work experience already but I have been promised work experience in the local hospital however the dates available are only after the Medicine deadline.
Should I do it for experience or is it more a waste of time?

It's worthwhile - most interviews wont take place until a good few months after the deadline so the experience can only help you better understand the career you're applying for.
