Is there a good book or course that delves into the medical field / medicines used during the transition between Roman occupied England and Anglo Saxon England?

What you're asking for is hard to find. Our knowledge of early medieval medicine, between 410 and the year 1000, is dependent on a series of manuscripts that are either original Old English works or works that have been translated from Latin into Old English.
I would recommend starting with the work of Peregrine Horden. Here are a few citations. I particularly like the last one (“What’s Wrong”) because Horden really takes you through questions that scholars have asked about medicine and how he evaluates them. Also, it’s a
heck of an entertaining read.

On Anglo-Saxon medicine broadly:
Voigts, Linda E. “Anglo-Saxon Plant
Remedies and the Anglo-Saxons.” Isis 70, no. 2 (June 1, 1979): 250–68. https://doi.org/10.2307/230791. This article is old now, but I still think it is a great introduction to early medieval
books of medicine, based on the important three: Lacnunga, Bald’s Leechbook and
the Leechbook III.
Bald’s Leechbook and the Leechbook III (mid-10th century) are both bound in
British Library Royal 12 D XVII. Their extensive bibliography is on their web
page: https://www.bl.uk/catalogues/illuminatedmanuscripts/record.asp?MSID=6548

Lacnunga (first or second quarter of the tenth century) is bound with the Herbarium of (pseudo-) Apuleius, translated into Old English. That manuscript is British Library Harley 585: https://www.bl.uk/manuscripts/FullDisplay.aspx?ref=Harley_MS_585

These manuscripts have extensive bibliographies, some of which the British Library cites on their web cite.

A few years ago, a recipe for eye salve from Bald's Leechbook was replicated and tested, and was found to be strongly antibacterial in vitro. It's interesting, a neat collaboration between an Old English scholar and a chemist. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-32117815

Enjoy!
