A little about Saad:

-Background: Originally from the lively city of Karachi, Pakistan, Saad graduated from Aga Khan University Medical College before joining our psychiatry program. While there, he participated in research aimed at improving the care of individuals exhibiting self-injurious behaviors.

-Why psychiatry: “I’m endlessly fascinated by human cognition and behavior,” he says — and it shows! His current interests include modern behavioral addictions like social media, gaming, and online shopping.

-What he loves most about residency: The autonomy and flexibility to shape his own schedule and explore diverse rotations.

-Interests outside of medicine: According to Saad, he is "a nerd through and through" — whether he's playing video games, competing in Magic: The Gathering, watching docuseries, or traveling to new places, he's always up for learning and adventure.

At RISE, we believe no one should walk this journey alone.
✨ We offer free Narcan to help save lives
✨ We provide naloxone training so families and friends feel prepared
✨ We share support, compassion, and connection every step of the way
Recovery is possible. Healing is possible. And hope is always here. 💜

We are pleased to feature Dr. Gloria Crump, MD, as our resident spotlight this week. As a current PGY-1 resident and Lieutenant in the US Navy Medical Corps, Gloria brings a unique blend of experience and dedication to her work.

A little about Gloria:

Background: Gloria grew up in Park City, KY (best known for Mammoth Cave National Park and the nearby Corvette Plant and Museum in Bowling Green, KY). She pursued a career in healthcare software analysis in Nashville before being drawn to the field of medicine, where she felt she could make a more tangible/hands-on impact on people's lives. She went on to earn her MD from the University of Louisville and was a recipient of the US Navy Health Professions Scholarship Program.

Why Psychiatry: Gloria is particularly drawn to psychiatry due to its holistic approach, recognizing that treating mental health can have a profound impact on overall wellness. Her special interests include psychiatry and lifestyle medicine, with a focus on treating the individual, not just the diagnosis.

Why our program: Gloria is excited to be a part of the IUSM Vincennes Psychiatry Residency Program, which she thinks offers the ideal blend of small-town charm and access to cutting-edge research resources, particularly in the area of AI, which aligns with her prior experience in healthcare software research and development.

A little about Dr. Pappas:

Dan grew up in Cleveland, Ohio and attended Cleveland State University for undergraduate training, obtaining a Bachelor's of Science with a major in Biology and a minor in Psychology. He later went on to study medicine at Marian University in Indianapolis.

Two of Dan's favorite things about the IUSM Psychiatry Vincennes Residency program are the freedom the program provides and the attendings with whom he works.

This week’s resident spotlight features Dr. Samuel Josephson, MD.

---
A little about Sam:

Sam is a PGY-1 interested in inpatient psychiatry and treating the severely mentally ill. His passion for psychiatry began while working as a psych tech while obtaining a major in Biology and minor in Chemistry at Utah Valley University. He later attended the American University of the Caribbean School of Medicine before coming to our program.

Sam was most excited about the IUSM Vincennes Psychiatry Program due to its rural location. Despite being rural, he reports that he enjoys having the resources and opportunities that still come from being a part of an academic center.

Outside of medicine, Sam enjoys traveling and camping. He has been to 37 different states and recently lived in an RV alongside his wife, dog, and cat as they toured the southern half of the United States! If he had to pick one kind of travel destination, he would go somewhere in the mountains with a nearby body of water to enjoy.

Breaking bread with the brains behind the brains!

Post-didactic dinner was a great time to unwind.

Our resident spotlight this week features Dr. Rebecca Hall, MD. Becca is a PGY-4. Becca is revered among her co-residents for her therapy skills (for which she was recognized as the 2024-25 Excellence in Therapy award recipient) and is known for being an excellent support for her peers and patients alike. Her co-residents note that her genuine care for her patients is readily apparent and highly admirable.

Becca came to the IUSM Psychiatry Residency from Idaho, having earned a BA in Philosophy and a BS in Biology at Idaho State University before attending medical school at the University of Washington. She decided to pursue a career in psychiatry, noting that she felt this specialty would allow her to do the most amount of good for the most people. Her interests in psychiatry include ethics, serious mental illness, and mood disorders. She also notes that her favorite thing about our residency program is the comradery amongst her co-residents.

Good food for a good mood!

Tonight was a great night for some well-deserved resident bonding time. We love to see our residents and their loved ones enjoying life together in Vincennes!

07/17/2025

Our resident spotlight of the week features Dr. Jessica Tedrow, MD! Jess is a current PGY-3 and is serving as our community outreach and social media chief.

---
A little about Dr. Tedrow:

Background: I was born and raised in Evansville, IN and studied Biochemistry and German at the University of Southern Indiana prior to attending the IU School of Medicine in Bloomington, Indiana.

Special Interests in Psychiatry: I have a lot of interests ranging from perinatal psychiatry to helping others navigate grief and end of life/palliative care to general inpatient psychiatry. I’m not sure what I will specialize in as an attending just yet, but I am excited to learn and grow along the way.

Why Medicine/Psychiatry: I’ve known I wanted to be a doctor since middle school, and my interests within medicine grew alongside me. I initially wanted to be an oncologist but discovered I enjoyed end of life care/palliative work more than I enjoyed the chemotherapy/radiation aspects. With time and experience, I found myself drawn to helping patients and their families navigate some of the hardest times of their lives. I value the individualized care and attention that psychiatry provides and feel that the field most aligns with my values (service to my community, compassionate care for vulnerable populations, patience, evidence based medicine and solutions, and emphasis on the person rather than a diagnosis).

Favorite thing about the residency program: Southwest Indiana is near and dear to my heart, and I am honored to practice in a place my husband and I both call home.

Who you are outside of medicine: I am a mom to a wonderful little boy and am expecting a little girl later this fall. While most of my time is occupied by trying to motivate my son to learn to crawl right now, I also really enjoy art in its many mediums (painting, writing children’s stories and trying to illustrate them, baking, singing, etc.). I love musicals, especially those done by StarKid. I also care greatly about bettering my community and am honored to have had the chance to work alongside my husband to help those struggling with addictions through advocacy work and helping to connect people with substance use disorders to much needed resources to support their recovery journeys.
