Is that also normal?

The 2 week extension for info is out of the norm, but as others
mentioned he may be doing you a favor...

In practice, your 1st medical will be the most difficult. The Dr. has
no history with you and needs to come up to speed on any conditions.

Subsequent visits to the same doctor should be more expedient -
assuming your medical conditions stay the same or get better.
