Default 3rd Class Medical in Florida Question…

I recently started by Private Pilot training in Daytona Beach and love
it. I actually never thought I would do as well as I'm doing and my
instructor is hounding me about getting my medical as he things I
should be read to solo very soon.

First I'll admit it, I HATE DOCTORS!… What all is involved in a 3rd
class medical? Do they do anything as advanced as any blood tests?
Sorry I can't do needles and if that means not flying then that is
it….

Next if there is no need for needles then how does one find a doctor
who "does as little as possible". I've heard stories where some
doctors really don't like pilots and put them through hell while other
doctors pretty much fill out the paperwork, do a sight and ear test
and that's about it…how do I go about finding one of these?
