Nicole’s love of travel has taken her to many places including a semester abroad at the University of Cambridge in London during the 2012 summer Olympics and as a volunteer with Missoula Medical Aid bringing health care to those living in rural Honduras. She’s also dedicated time to First Descents, a kayak camp for young adults with cancer paddling near Glacier National Park.

Prior to PA school, Nicole worked as a medical assistant where she gained valuable insight into the healthcare needs of our community and she looks forward to giving back as Blue Mountain Clinic’s newest PA.

Nicole is especially passionate about reproductive health, diabetes management, and preventive medicine for all shapes, sizes, ages, and genders! When she is not caring for her community, you’ll find her the Glacier Ice Rink, Snowbowl, or up Mount Sentinel with her pups.

Dr. Caitlin Blau is a graduate of the Family Medicine Residency of Western Montana here in Missoula. She went to medical school at Touro University College of Osteopathic Medicine in the San Francisco Bay Area, and did her undergraduate studies at Fairhaven College at Western Washington University in Bellingham, WA.

The opportunity to work at Blue Mountain Clinic was one of the reasons she chose to move to Montana for residency three years ago. Dr. Banks has been an integral part of her training and she feels honored to be stepping into her role at Blue Mountain. Dr Blau is passionate about full-spectrum family medicine, particularly stigmatized care such as abortions, transgender medicine, substance use disorders, mental health, and chronic pain. She believes everyone deserves access to patient-centered care with transparent medical information and shared decision making.

From Dr Blau –

“I’m thrilled to be setting down roots in this beautiful state, and I can’t wait to start serving our local community. Come and chat with me about your health care needs!”
