For genetics, you want ot study biology, not medicine. For the other fields you mention, you have to go to medical school — which you do after getting a four year degree.
Below is a list of the best medical schools.
Regarding the person who suggested Harvard, Princeton and Western Illinois — Harvard has one of the best medical schools in the world. however, neither Western Illinois nor Princeton even have a medical school.
as previously stated, you need a bachelors degree before you can go to medical school. some colleges (like Harvard) offer a pre-med track that focuses on chemistry and biology, but with a degree from a prestigious university, and a good score on the MCAT (SAT for medical students), you should be in fairly good shape to get into med school. Johns Hopkins, Harvard, and Vanderbilt all have exceptional medical schools. Do your research on the schools, and find which fits your needs.
Harvard
Princeton
western Illinois University
University of Louisville Kentucky
