Logan began his current position with Hamilton Health Center in 2017. 

“When you’re bitten by the bug to provide patient care, you seem to always stay in that field,” said Logan.  “It’s truly my passion and I love the work that I do.”

Logan has lived in Pennsylvania most of his life.  His wife of 26 years, Debra, works for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the Department of Health. They have three children and one granddaughter. In his free time, John loves to travel and be outdoors.
