It is such a standard panel its not funny. That said, a psychologist is not an MD and cannot order labs, typically.

It's common to get a spot/random glucose test as part of a metabolic panel, but not that common to get an A1C or certainly auto-antibody tests, in my experience.
A1c has become a lot more common over the last 20 years… adoption of new standards can take a while in healthcare, even stuff that has existed for a while
