For specialist info in this area, I'd suggest joining the MEDANT list 
(although it is reaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllly quiet):

http://ea1785.org/medant/list.htm

It's worth going through the bibliography at the UBirm site; not a lot that

Elsewhere on the web, check out (some of these are obviously aimed at a 
more general audience):

http://www.mcatmaster.com/medicine&war/ancientrome.htm (includes a fresco 
detail of a Roman surgeon removing a dart from a soldier's leg)
