Embassy states AT LEAST 5-7 days before the interview, she could do the medical a month before and no issue, she could complete the medical the day before the interview, but that can delays in processing after the interview... still it can be done.

The only thing is that the medical is only valid for six months and it must be valid upon POE.

Also her visa expiration date is based on successful medical date and not when she has her interview. This is usually not an issue but something to be aware of.
