Recently got a new medical and didn't realize until after it was printed that it had the wrong address on it. How can I go about getting one with a corrected address?

You may do so in writing at:
Federal Aviation Administration
Aerospace Medical Certification Division, AAM-300
CAMI Building
6500 S. MacArthur Blvd
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73169
Since the airman completes the 8500-8 on-line, AME's assume the airman has placed the correct address on the form. You in fact certified the information you submitted was correct.

Its been a while since it happened to me, but I got a medical, thought I had looked it over carefully, signed it, but when I got home realized that they screwed up my address when typing it up.
I forget exactly how I went about fixing it, but I'm pretty sure I either called or emailed them and they sorted it out really quickly. They even gave me a call a little less than a week later to follow up as to whether the new certificate had arrived. I was very impressed with the level of competency and customer service.

Hello,
First post here! I received my Third Class medical and Private Pilot certificate last year during summer 2012. I recently graduated college and moved addresses. While I did update my address with the FAA registry online, my physical medical still shows my college address and my certificate shows my address in Atlanta. I currently live in Greenville, SC. Is this an issue?

No it is not. In the FAA files it is correct. Be sure to change it in the medical application at your next physical.
