[BitD] Player wants different abilities

First time playing Blades with my group and they are loving it (5 sessions in).

One of the players is a tycherosi leech, that before becoming a scoundrel was a battlefield medic, and he wants is abilities to better represent that.

So, i was thinking to maybe give him that (since the part already was another leech, who is focused on alchemy and building). My doubt is, should we change his abilities, or should i make him do downtime activities to add those abilities as options?

Also, if you guys can help review some of them, to see what is too op, and what is usable:

Field Medic - you can push yourself to make an ally temporary ignore the negative effects of an injury.
Resilience - you have +1d on resistances to exaustion and medical drug effects
Emergency Time - when an ally is gonna receive a level 4 injury, you can push yourself to make a tinker or study action, to try to help him. If you succed, you reduce the injury to level 3.
Adrenaline Injection - you can make a character receive an extra dice in any prowess action. The character receives 2 stress and a level 1 injury Chemical Exaustion. You can stack this with the push yourself effect of the character.
Superficial Diagnosis - you receive +1d to hunt, study or survey a person
