I'd design it with a slightly more general purpose "gather" function, myself:

def gather(sets, groups):
    for found in sets.group(*groups):
        if found is not None: yield

found = re.finditer (pattern, doc, re.I)

medList = [x for x in gather(sets, (1, 2, 3)) for sets in found]

Although, on the other hand, if gather will only be used once, it seems a little redundant to wrap it in a separate function.
