Brian Lubberstedt, M.D.

Brian LubberstedtDr. Lubberstedt is a local, having grown up in Papillion, NE, a small town on the south edge of Omaha. After going to college at Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln, he came back to Omaha to attend med school at UNMC. He completed his general psychiatry residency last year, and has one more year of the Child & Adolescent Fellowship to go. He has served as Psychiatry Resident Organization (PRO) secretary, and was associate chief for the general residency as well. In his final year of training, he will serve as Co-Chief Resident for the child fellowship.

Dr. Lubberstedt was married in medical school, and has three kids. All three were born either in or very close to residency (the first was born two weeks before match day!).

Dr Lubberstedt says "I can say that residency has been kind to my family. I have had plenty of time to be involved in my children's lives, and I think many of the other residents would echo me as four of my five residency classmates also have children. In addition to family, I am also very involved at my church, where I have served as a Bible study leader as well as Youth Leader, though not at the same time! As an Omaha native, my opinion on Omaha as a place to live may have to be taken with a grain of salt. However, it is very family friendly, with enough to do to keep you busy. Plus, my family is able to live in a house with a large yard in the suburbs on just my salary, and it still takes me less than 20 minutes to get to work!"

Dr. Lubberstedt also adds "As far as interests within residency, I haven't been overly ambitious. That can be tough, with a family and active outside life. I have published a few papers, and been involved in research. All of the projects have been someone else's (mostly pharma-initiated). It's been a great way to get a taste of research without having to deal with all the bureaucracy that goes with it. Overall, I have been very pleased with my experience in this program and the depth of opportunities provided, and would make the same choice over again. Check it out!"

Vishal Madaan

Vishal MadaanOriginally from Northern India, Dr. Madaan graduated, and completed a psychiatry residency at the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences, Rohtak, India. He then worked as a research fellow in Psychogenomics at Mayo Clinic and finally, started residency and child psychiatry fellowship here. His wife is an Internal Medicine resident here and they enjoy listening to Hindi and Punjabi songs as well as following Indian sports, especially cricket.

Dr. Madaan says "The residency training here provides a very collegiate and family-like environment for international medical graduates and accomplishes its mission of providing both psychopharmacology and psychotherapy training in a structured manner. There are numerous opportunities for well-rounded personal and professional growth, be it as a clinician, researcher or academician, and the residents are ably mentored and nurtured by an easily accessible and outstanding faculty. In fact, I enjoyed the experience so much that I decided to pursue a child psychiatry fellowship here as well!"
