Should my "Allowable medical expenses" shown on Deduction Summary equal sum of Total Med Expenses + amt in Box 85 (T4) + Box 135 (T4A)? It doesn't.

I entered a lump sum for medical expenses (out-of-pocket). I didn't enter the amounts taken from T-slips because I understand that the software adds them in automatically.

No, the amount you see in the summary is the allowable portion of your medical expenses left over after the 3% portion of your income. For additional information, please see our TurboTax FAQ: Everything You Need to Know About Medical Expenses and Your Taxes.
