You're looking for the pre-med/MD programs that take you out of high school. For very good high school students only. There are several around. I know Northwestern has one and Univ of SoCal might as well, for example.

Oh, and whoever gave Matt a thumbsdown is wrong. Med school is HARD to get in. He just gave a realistic answer. We get too many questions on here from people who clearly will never be qualified to make it into med school. They really need a reality check. Can save them a lot of money and grief.

IF you carefully examine the website of the American Association of Medical Colleges you will see the prerequisites for all the USA medical schools. Also, you will see that the average medical student has a BS degree AND that a large percent of the applicants have spent an ADDITIONAL year after they finished their BS working on some area related to medicine. This is becoming fairly routine. I noticed recently that American University in Washington DC actually has a formal post-BS year that you can take to improve your chances of admission....

In opther words, your chances of getting accepted into any American medical school with less than a full college experience is pretty slim. And if you are not a top student in technical classes like organic chemistry, you might have to spend an extra year to have any realistic chance of admission.
