This has been an issue for me also; i've addressed it via the following
advice:

    (defadvice doc-view-next-page (after doc-view-next-page-move-to-top 
activate)
      "After moving to next page, move to top of page."
      (image-set-window-vscroll 0))

    (defadvice doc-view-previous-page (after 
doc-view-previous-page-move-to-bottom activate)
      "After moving to previous page, move to bottom of page."
      (image-set-window-vscroll (+ 2 (/ (window-height) 2))))
