Sara Blodgett, PAInfusion, Arthritis & Rheumatology

I was born and raised in Northern California. I have lived in Colorado for the last 12 years, including the Front Range and the Vail Valley before settling in Mesa County. I went to Pueblo Community College where I received my AAS as a physical therapist assistant (PTA). I worked as a PTA for a total of 6 years, as I slowly decided to go back to school. I went to Colorado State University in Fort Collins and got my Bachelor of Science in Health and Exercise Science. Shortly after, I was accepted into Colorado Mesa University's first PA class and graduated in 2021. During PA school I did all my clinical rotations in the state of Colorado and found I enjoy rheumatology the most. Now I am a practicing physician assistant/associate in rheumatology with Family Health West. I consider myself an outdoor enthusiast and a pet person. In my free time, I like to go climbing, mountain biking, trail running, snowboarding, paddle boarding and camping. I enjoy spending time with my significant other, along with our two cats and a turtle.
