Biography

Dr. Brian W. Loggie currently serves as the Harold J. Bonnstetter Professor of Surgery at Creighton University School of Medicine located in Omaha, Nebraska and is chief of the division of surgical oncology and director of the Cancer Biology Program at Creighton University Medical Center. Dr. Loggie attended Loyola College in Montreal, Canada prior to completing his medical degree at McGill University, also located in Montreal. He completed his residency at Montreal General Hospital from 1980-1986 followed by a clinical and research fellowship in surgical oncology at the University of Illinois at Chicago from 1986-1988.

Prior to assuming his leadership roles at Creighton in 2002, Dr. Loggie held faculty positions at the University of Illinois at Chicago (1986-1988), the Bowman Gray School of Medicine in Winston-Salem, North Carolina (1988-2000), and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas (2000-2002).

Dr. Loggie is internationally-renowned for his expertise and clinical experience in treating cancers that are metastatic to or that have originated in the peritoneal lining (thin tissue layer) of the abdomen and pelvis. He is a pioneer in the use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) treatment—a procedure in which a chemotherapy solution is heated to a temperature greater than normal body temperature and delivered directly to the abdominal cavity.
