To the Editor:

As we discuss laws to redefine the relationship between mental health professionals and their patients, a report on renewing my driver’s license might be pertinent since I need a form filled out by a psychiatrist or other medical doctor to renew my driver’s license.

In 2008, my psychiatrist and the local license bureau disagreed about how to fill out the form. That psychiatrist has left the area. And my longtime psychologist with a Ph. D. does not qualify because he is not a medical doctor. So I gave the 2012 form to my primary care doctor. I got my license with no glitches.
