Waddell also studied Sumerian and Sanskrit; he made various translations of seals and other inscriptions. Some of his book publications however were popular with the public, and he is regarded by some today to have been a real-life precursor of the fictional character Indiana Jones. His first job was as a resident surgeon near the university and was also the President of Glasgow University's Medical Society.

In 1880 Waddell joined the British Indian Army and served as a medical officer with the Indian Medical Service (I.M.S), subsequently he was stationed in India and the Far East (Tibet, China and Burma). The following year he became a Professor of Chemistry and Pathology at the Medical College of Kolkata, India.
