Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities across various specialist domains and have been integrated into high-stakes areas such as medicine. However, as existing medical-related benchmarks rarely stress-test the long-context memory, interference robustness, and safety defense required in practice. To bridge this gap, we introduce MedMT-Bench, a challenging medical multi-turn instruction following benchmark that simulates the entire diagnosis and treatment process. We construct the benchmark via scene-by-scene data synthesis refined by manual expert editing, yielding 400 test cases that are highly consistent with real-world application scenarios. Each test case has an average of 22 rounds (maximum of 52 rounds), covering 5 types of difficult instruction following issues. For evaluation, we propose an LLM-as-judge protocol with instance-level rubrics and atomic test points, validated against expert annotations with a human-LLM agreement of 91.94%. We test 17 frontier models, all of which underperform on MedMT-Bench, with the best model reaching 66.75%. MedMT-Bench can be an essential tool for driving future research towards safer and more reliable medical AI. The benchmark is available in https://github.com/hiyyc/MedMT-Bench.
