Job Description

  • Part-Time Physical Therapist – Flexible Weekday Schedule
  • AID Performance Physical Therapy | Ashburn, Virginia
  • Outpatient Orthopedics and Sports Medicine
  • Approximately 12–20 hours per week, with additional hours available
  • Pay: $45–$52 per hour, based on experience and schedule commitment

AID Performance Physical Therapy is seeking a licensed physical therapist who wants a consistent, genuinely part-time position in an independent outpatient orthopedic and sports medicine clinic.

This opportunity may be an excellent fit for an experienced clinician returning to patient care, balancing work with family or other responsibilities, or looking to add predictable outpatient hours to an existing PRN schedule.

We can structure the position around two or three recurring weekday blocks, including hours that align with the school day. Additional hours may be available but are not required.

About the Position

This position will primarily involve providing follow-up treatments to patients who have been evaluated and whose plans of care have been established by the clinic owner.

The clinician may perform evaluations when needed or mutually agreed upon, but carrying a heavy evaluation schedule is not an expectation of this position.

You will have the autonomy of a licensed physical therapist while working collaboratively with the clinic owner to provide consistent, evidence-based care.

Two weekdays from approximately 9:00 a. m.–3:00 p. m.

  • Three shorter school-day shifts
  • One or two longer weekday blocks
  • Another consistent schedule that works for both the clinician and the clinic
