About Dr. Lindsay Weaver
Dr. Weaver was reappointed Indiana State Health Commissioner by Governor Mike Braun on Jan. 13, 2025, having been named to the position by Governor Eric J. Holcomb in June 2023. She brings to the role a passion for improving the health of Hoosiers through a focus on prevention, data-informed programming, and access to care in all corners of the state.

As state health commissioner, Dr. Weaver also leads the implementation of Health First Indiana (HFI), an initiative aimed at improving the health of all Hoosiers through an investment in prevention and the delivery of core public health services. She visited all 92 Indiana counties during her first year as commissioner, highlighting how locally based decision-making is a central tenet of HFI as health departments know best how to address the needs in their communities.

Prior to her appointment, she had served since Feb. 3, 2020, as the chief medical officer for the Indiana Department of Health (IDOH), where she helped to lead the state’s pandemic response by spearheading the development of the statewide lab testing network to expand COVID-19 testing capacity in Indiana and led the statewide distribution of COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics.

Dr. Weaver is also an assistant professor of clinical emergency medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine and continues to practice emergency medicine at Methodist Hospital in Indianapolis.

She earned her undergraduate degree in biology at the University of Kentucky and graduated from the University of Louisville School of Medicine. She received residency training in emergency medicine and fellowship training in hospice and palliative medicine at Indiana University School of Medicine, and she completed a fellowship in ethics at the Charles Warren Fairbanks Center for Medical Ethics at Indiana University Health.

Dr. Weaver and her husband have five daughters.
