Job Description

Clinic Director / Physical Therapist | Sunnyvale, CA | Prompt Clinical Career Connection

Lead a team. Make an impact. Get back to what you love about physical therapy.

We're partnering with an established outpatient physical therapy practice in Sunnyvale, California, that's looking for a Clinic Director to lead its team!

With more than 20 years of experience serving the surrounding community, this practice is looking for a passionate PT leader who can balance exceptional patient care with team development, operational excellence, and continued growth.

If you're an experienced Physical Therapist who's ready to take the next step in leadership, or an existing Clinic Director looking for a new opportunity, we'd love to connect!

Love being a PT, but ready to make a bigger impact?

At Prompt, we believe the right clinic, supported by the right technology, can make all the difference. That's why we created Prompt Clinical Career Connection, connecting physical therapists with Prompt-powered practices that prioritize clinician success.

We're excited to highlight a leadership opportunity with an established outpatient orthopedic practice that values high-quality patient care, strong clinical leadership, and building a team where clinicians can thrive.

This is an opportunity to help shape the patient and clinician experience while continuing to do what you love about physical therapy.

What Makes This Opportunity Special?

Competitive Compensation: Earn between $110,000 and $120,000 annually, depending on experience, with potential performance-based incentives.

Leadership & Team Development: Lead a team of physical therapists and support staff, helping clinicians grow professionally while building a collaborative, high-performing environment.

Clinical & Operational Impact: Take ownership of clinic operations, patient outcomes, and the overall patient experience while helping drive continued success.

Established Community Presence: Join a practice with more than 20 years of experience serving patients in the surrounding community.

Professional Growth: Continue developing your leadership and clinical expertise through ongoing education and professional development opportunities.

Patient-Centered Care: Help create an environment where clinicians can deliver exceptional care while maintaining strong relationships with their patients.

What You'll Do

  • Oversee daily clinical operations, ensuring high-quality patient care and a positive patient experience.
  • Lead, mentor, and support a team of physical therapists and clinic support staff.
  • Conduct patient evaluations and provide hands-on treatment as needed.
  • Monitor patient outcomes and collaborate with clinicians to continuously improve care.
  • Develop and maintain clinic processes that support operational efficiency, compliance, and quality standards.
  • Manage clinic performance, including budgets, productivity, and operational goals.
  • Build and maintain relationships with referral sources, healthcare providers, and the surrounding community.
  • Partner with organizational leadership to review clinic performance and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Support community outreach and initiatives that strengthen the practice's presence.
  • Stay current on advancements in physical therapy and encourage continued clinical development across the team.
  • The Prompt Advantage: Less documentation, more patient care

Prompt-powered practices have access to AI built specifically for rehab therapy to help reduce administrative work, including:

Ambient AI Scribe: Drafts your documentation based on the patient encounter, giving you less to write from scratch.

Real-Time Compliance: Helps ensure notes meet documentation and compliance requirements before submission.

AI Case Summaries: Surfaces relevant patient information and clinical context without digging through the chart.

The impact? 96% of clinicians using Prompt leave work at work instead of documenting after hours, and therapists at Prompt-powered practices leave the profession at a significantly lower rate than the industry overall.

For a Clinic Director, having access to technology designed to reduce administrative burden can mean more time to focus on patient care, supporting your team, and leading a successful practice.
