Introduction

​​​​​Dr. Robert Cusick has spent the last 20 years practicing pediatric surgery in Omaha, Nebraska and h​as performed over 10,000 procedures. “My goal is to provide the best advanced surgical care to children throughout the Midwest,” he said. As a leader in his field, he lends his expertise through various appointments with the American Pediatric Surgical Association, American Board of Surgery and the American Board of Pediatric Surgery.

Dr. Cusick is also active in Global Health. “My mission is to provide surgical care and mentor young pediatric surgeons, and this has taken me to countries in need, including Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Vietnam,” he said. To ensure this important work continues, he created the Travel Fellowship, which brings pediatric surgeons to the United States for additional training.
