The healthcare system is comparable with that of Denmark (the Nordic countries are quite similar, when compared to other countries). I do not know enough about the healthcare system of Germany to make a comparison with it.
As an international graduate, you would be expected to learn Swedish to a sufficient degree. For some patients, the quality of the physician's spoken Swedish language may also affect their appreciation of the physician, so I would recommend making an effort to get the pronounciation just right according to local standards.
(Unless you end up in Skåne, where I would instead recommend basing your spoken Swedish training on Swedish television programmes. "Skånska" is difficult for Swedes to understand.
