Thanks to @Gurby for the help, this is what I've got currently:

Ms. Contact,

I am looking to see if I can follow up on my pre-employment physical results. I interviewed with name, took the written, and was sent to the Occupational Health Center to do the physical and drug screen on Nov 18th. I was told that it would take around 3 days for results of the drug test to come back, at which point I would be able to schedule the lift test. It has been almost 4 weeks now, so I just wanted to check in and see if it was possible to follow up on those results so I can continue in the hiring process. Thank you very much.

Respectfully,

Also might want to consider going with "Dear Ms. Contact".

Also, maybe consider calling instead of or in addition to emailing? It's much easier for them to ignore an email.

I've tried calling a few times now, everytime I've gotten either "He's in a meeting and will call you back" or "Yeah I'll check on it, let me call you back" and no call back. I'm already planning on dressing up suit and tie for to go to another company tomorrow (as per the recommendation of a former employee) so I figure I might swing by both places (this first company is about a 20 min drive and serves the area where I live, the other is closer to 45-60 min drive, although they do more 911 with about the same pay)

Dear Ms. Contact,

I am writing you as a follow up on my pre-employment physical results. On November 18th I interviewed with name, successfully completed the written exam, and was asked to report to the Occupational Health Center for a physical examination and drug screen. After completing both, I was told that it would take around 3 days for results of the drug test to be returned, at which time I would be scheduled for a lift test. As it has now been almost four weeks since I successfully completed all of the preemployennt testing, with the exception of the lift test, and I have not received a phone call or email, I wanted to reconnect with You personally and continue with the next steps in the hiring process.

If you require any further information, references or copies of my certification before scheduling my lift test, I am happy to provide it.

I will call your office on Monday to follow up and schedule our next meeting.

I look forward to speaking with you soon,

Respectfully,

I hate Urgent Care doctors and NPs. They make it so hard to be nice. I have to be nice while I'm on my internship.

You hate urgent care doctors and NP's?

Or do you dislike a couple specific doctors/NP's at the urgent care you are shadowing at?

One of the first times I met my partner, I said I was tired and wanted to sit down.... He said " I have somewhere you can sit" and pointed at his face.

isn't meeting people just great?

Good lord...If ever an allergy list alone could tell the story of the call.

Have to love those pt who have a long list of allergies to psych med but deny any psych history.

On a side note, I've wondered how much of the general population is allergic to psych meds but have no idea since they've/we've never had to take them.
