The center is led by Medical Director James G. Carlisle, MD, FSIR, a board-certified interventional radiologist who earned his degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology with High Distinction from the University of Michigan and completed an interventional radiology fellowship at The Western Pennsylvania Hospital under Gordon McLean, MD. After serving as an Associate Professor at Northeast Ohio Medical University, Dr. Carlisle joined the University of Utah and Huntsman Cancer Institute in 2004, where he developed the first interventional oncology clinical team in the intermountain west and the first intravascular brachytherapy treatment center for liver tumors and metastases. He performed the first Diomed laser ablation of the greater saphenous vein in Utah and received the physician Health Care Hero award from Utah Business Magazine and the MountainStar Health System in 2012. The team also includes Kevin Maxwell, MD, who trained at the University of Kansas and focuses on interventional oncology and dialysis access management; Shane Weber, MD, who specializes in venous insufficiency, vein occlusion, peripheral artery disease, and uterine fibroid embolization; and Peter B. Hathaway, MD, an interventional radiologist who completed his degree at the University of Utah.

The office sits on South State Street, with McCall Park about a third of a mile to the south and the South Main Public Health Center nearby.

Dr. Carlisle's decades of work in interventional radiology and oncology, including pioneering procedures across Utah and the broader intermountain west, have built Wasatch Vascular Center into a well-regarded practice for patients in the Salt Lake City area seeking advanced, nonsurgical vascular treatment.
