- Biomedical Vision--Language Models (VLMs) have shown remarkable promise in few-shot medical diagnosis but face a critical bottleneck: \textit{fragility to prompt variations}.Existing adaptation frameworks typically optimize visual and textual prompts as independent streams, relying on ideal ``Golden Prompts''. In clinical reality, where descriptions are often noisy and heterogeneous, this modality isolation leads to unstable cross-modal alignment. To address this, we propose BiomedAP, a vision-informed dual-anchor framework with gated cross-modal fusion.BiomedAP enforces synergistic alignment through two mechanisms: (1) Gated Cross-Modal Fusion, which enables layer-wise interaction between modalities, acting as a dynamic noise regulator to suppress irrelevant textual cues; and (2) a Dual-Anchor Constraint that regularizes learnable prompts toward stable semantic centroids derived from both expert templates (High Anchors) and few-shot visual prototypes (Low Anchors). Extensive experiments across 11 benchmarks demonstrate that BiomedAP consistently surpasses baselines, achieving competitive few-shot accuracy and markedly enhanced robustness under prompt perturbations.
