Dr. Derrick Haslem has been a key leader in expanding cancer services to more rural populations by providing tele-oncology services. This program brings high-quality cancer care close to home and reduces complexity, cost, and travel for patients living outside and far away from traditional large cancer centers.
As the Associate Medical Director, Dr. Derrick Haslem has built an outstanding team of cancer providers who care for patients throughout Intermountain west. He ensures his team provides high standards and quality cancer care to all patients. He has been at the forefront in establishing the Intermountain Precision Genomics program. Intermountain Cancer Center was the first institution to succeed at establishing a personalized, genomic-based oncology program within an integrated healthcare delivery system.
Dr. Derrick Haslem received his medical degree from the University of Utah School of Medicine and completed a residency in internal medicine at University of Utah Hospitals and Clinics and an Oncology fellowship at the University of Utah’s Huntsman Cancer Institute.

When asked about the Teleoncology partnership between Intermountain and Uintah Basin Healthcare, Dr. Haslem said “Intermountain’s goal is to be a partner with Uintah Basin Healthcare’s care team as they care for cancer patients in the Uintah Basin. Being born and raised in the Uintah Basin, I have a personal connection to this partnership and a dedication to the success of this program. Had this program been in place during my family member’s recent cancer journey, the majority of their treatments and associated testing could have been performed here in the Basin. We understand that time at home, with family and loved ones during oncology treatment is simply priceless. People feel better and do better. Our goal and vision is to ensure that patients get the highest quality cancer care close to home and as convenient as possible.”
