Both have their advantages and disadvantages.
Firstly with Master Doc you get the obvious addition of being able to buff yourself as well as heal states/damage very well, both of which come in handy. But what i really like about the Carb/Doc Template is you have a means of making money other than missions, you can sell buffs and medicine and make fairly good money doing it. PvE you will be laughing, but in PvP with strictly carbines for damage dealing it will take alot of time, money and practice to start making people feel the pain. But being able to quickly apply states and remove them from your friends will make you a valuable team PvPer.
Secondly, BH Carbines are insane. With +100 speed you can stock, damage slice, damage PU any carbine you want without a worry in the world. Whereas most carbineers look for imp stocks, kryat tissues with high speed values to make fast weapons, then speed slice them and add a speed PU to one day hope to speed cap. You can go shopping for a weapon with a really nice high number on the damage stat, and easily pick up a weapon with 2 times the damage of a carbineer weapon, plus you can spam higher damage specials faster 
You can do one thing, hurt people with your carbine, and you do it *very* well.
You can do one thing, hurt people with your carbine, and you do it *very* well.In short, Carbineer/Doctor is more a self-sufficient support character and BH/Carbineer is a monster with a carbine, so it really depends what you are looking for. Hope this helps. (if it matters i am a Master Carbines, BH Carbs3, and Novice Medic, and so far this is my fav carbine template and i have played. Carb/Ranger, Carb/Swords, Carb/Fencer, and Carb/CM, i also have a second toon on my server that is a Master AS/Tailor so money has never been an issue for me)

Don't forget BH/Carbineers added accuracy, and CONFUSION SHOT. Confusion shot is highly awesome. It sticks a dizzy almost every time, and it lasts for 30 seconds. Plus Underhand is a nice single target KD which doesn't require you to stand and make a crazy animation.

I still like the Carbineer/CH template for PvE and the Carbineer/Fencer template for PvP.
Also add 0040 Pistoleer into those templates

I couldn't get another master profession like fencer because I think I'd find myself just using the power of the baton. I like carbines because I feel like its my thing so I want to be able to use it primarly. Unfortuntly, the only real way (in my opinion) to effectively (semi-effectivly in PvP) use carbines is to get BH mods which sucks up all skill points. I wouldn't mind being able to be effective as a Carbineer/Doctor.

Actually my ideal PvP Carbineer template just dabblers throughout the melee profs strictly for defenses. I understand it would be difficult to even use Carbineer if you have a master in a melee prof.....hope that changes with the Combat Balance.....
Except for Jedi, when do we see melee professions dominate the ENTIRE STAR WARS UNIVERSE......have the Devs forgotten that this is Star Wars.....personally I think so....
Nova should bring this to the Devs attention......THIS IS STAR WARS......

Sssh! It's not Star Wars. It's Lord of the Scythes, The Twin Batons, and Return of the Jedi.

what template do you think would be better:
1.) Master Carbineer/Master Doc
2.) Master Carbineer/Bh carb line

I couldn't agree more. I wish the melee professions were role-play professions and the ranged professions were uber...unfortunately we have the exact opposite.

While im sure the buff/med selling can be nice, bh carbs/master carbineer is easily the best money making prof as far as missions go. Cripple shot can do an insane amount of damage to the janta lairs that i fight, and it often kills them so fast that they do not even get to me before the lair is gone, if they do reach me i have full composite on so i can take a beating. Using the strategy of ignoring the jantas and just blasting the lair, i can make 1.5 mil+ in a buffset doing just jantas and mokks, the lair takes under 20 seconds to kill.
