the medical request letter states that you have 60 days to comply with the request.
the 60 days is the deadline for you to take the medicals, not the deadline for the embassy to receive the results..
the DMP will submit the results to the nearest medical officer and after checking they will forward the results to your visa office.

1.So what was the initial deadline?
2.Also does your letter say where to send the medicals. Because I talked to doctors here in the US they told me that they send medical results to Canada then from Canada the results are sent to the local visa office. Although those who belong to visa offices in Europe have to send medical results to London, UK.
1. Visa office-specific checklist should specify that.
2. I think it will depend on the consulate you applied to. I am sure that results for the consulate in Buffalo are going to Ottawa, results for European consulates are processed in London, England. Anyway, the DMP should send the results out to teh right place (without showing them to you ...:()
check the regional medical offices here:

Is not that 90 days? I know that 60 day-rule apply when something goes wrong and you have to submit additional info (ie specialist report)

DMP will submit my medicals to Canada cause I'm currently in the US. But my visa office is in Europe and I need to submit my medicals to London. Does it make any difference if the doctor send them to Canada not UK? Does it mean that they will receive the results later than if they were sent to London?
