What about abilities he has yet to show? For one, he could have casted Shisui's genjutsu on him if he wasn't saving it for Madara. He could also have used that eye to activate Izanagi once again. Don't forget that Sasuke was (supposed to be) out of chakra. That sword clash was supposed to be the final attack for either of them.
Nothing's certain in a fight such as the one they just had.
All Sasuke did was use Danzo's weaknesses against him (his monitoring of his active Sharingans, his confidence that Sasuke won't attack as long as he had Karin).
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
By that logic, he couldn't be certain stabbing through Karin would have ended the fight either. Especially with Danzou having an eye to use Izanagi left. He could have ended up running her through for nothing.
So...the fact that he constantly needs to be healed...means he should get rid of his healer.
You seem to be implying that, the only reason Sasuke needs to be healed, is because he's being reckless, and he's only being reckless BECAUSE he has a medic.
That implies that, if Sasuke didn't have a healer, he'd be more cautious, but he'd still be winning.
It's because, straight up, Sasuke is NOT strong enough to beat these people on his own. He would have died 3 times fighting Bee without Taka. He would have died 5 times fighting the Kage's without Taka and Akatsuki, and he would have died again fighting Danzou if it weren't for Karin.
You say, "If you know you have a healer at hand, you can use strategy involving healing afterwards. If you don't have a healer, you must do things so you don't need one." But the fact is there IS nothing he could do to fight so he wouldn't need a healer. Because he's WEAKER than these people he's defeating. If he didn't have his healer, he'd be LOSING these fights, no matter what he did.
The fact that he can he can do something mutually self destructive against Danzou and live through it because he gets healed is the ONLY reason he can beat Danzou in the first place.

Yep.
He had the choice of attacking Danzo with the possibility of either killing him or relieving him of his hostage, while (highly possibly) killing Karin, or
Letting Danzo keep Karin as a hostage (with no guarantee that she'll be his again anyway), risk letting one of his targets of revenge get away (and being much more alert from now on, as well as knowing many of his abilities), or even getting killed.
Sasuke chose the second option, which isn't very surprising really.
