A. Birth certificates are public documents, and are available through local health districts and/or county clerk offices. UTMB does not keep birth certificates on file. Information on obtaining a copy of your birth certificate can be found on the Galveston County Clerk web site for our Galveston County facilities (League City and Galveston), and from the Brazoria County Clerk for individuals born at UTMB Health's Angleton Danbury Campus.
