IMPORTANT: Starting Thursday, February 12, 2026, the Indiana BMV will no longer change gender markers on IDs or driver’s licenses using court orders or doctors’ letters.
If you need to make this change, go to the BMV by February 11, 2026, with all required documents.
Damien Center patients who need a doctor’s letter should contact us AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. For the fastest response, send a message through your patient portal.
‼️SENDING A MESSAGE THROUGH THE PATIENT PORTAL IS THE FASTEST WAY TO CONNECT WITH US. ‼️
