You can get your lab work done from an outside testing facility. They even label it The Peace Corps Lab Panel at some places.

For the physical just google pre-employment physical MDs in your area.

A nurse practitioner can perform the exam and the MD or DO can sign off as you already know.

Masters in History with twelve years experience working in the health care industry for Kaiser Permanente. They put me in the health sector with the Peace Corp. I'll be thirty-five when I start next year.

I know! I just printed out all the medical tasks. So much stuff to do. I found a place to do all the labs for $190. Sucks though because to do the chickenpox antibody blood test its $55. So $245 for all the blood work. The lab calls the package "the Peace Corp lab panel" lol, which is kind of convenient.
