He received his medical degree from Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, N.C., where he graduated in the top 5% of his medical school class. Looney received the William G. Anylan Senior Scholarship and was a member of the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society.
He earned a bachelor of science degree in biology from Washington and Lee University in Lexington, Va., where he graduated magna cum laude and was a member of the Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society.

He completed a research fellowship at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Durham, N.C., and an Ilizarov mini-fellowship at the Russian Ilizarov Scientific Center for Restorative Traumatology and Orthopaedics in Kurgan, Siberia.
In July, Looney will complete a one-year sports medicine fellowship at Steadman Hawkins in Vail, Co.
An NCAA scholar athlete, Looney was captain of his college wrestling team, and he received the A.E. Mathis War Memorial Wrestling Award. In his spare time, he enjoys fly fishing, hunting, sporting clays, backpacking, biking, canoeing and kayaking.
