True One-on-One Care: Dedicated 60-minute physical therapy sessions in a low-volume, cash-pay setting
Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Work closely with physicians, registered dietitians, and other healthcare professionals
Professional Development: $500 annually toward continuing education and specialty certifications, plus paid license renewals
Clinical Autonomy: Take ownership of your patient care and help establish physical therapy services at a new location

Provide individualized orthopedic rehabilitation, manual therapy, exercise prescription, and return-to-activity programming. You'll work with motivated, health-conscious patients in a setting that prioritizes quality over quantity.
