  • About Us (The Short & Awesome Version)

At Ivy Rehab, we’re more than a therapy provider—we’re a nationwide community of passionate people dedicated to helping others feel and live better. We invest deeply in your growth (personally, professionally, and clinically) and pride ourselves on a culture built around autonomy, collaboration, community, and a spark of entrepreneurship.

Why You'll Love Being Here

We like to think of ourselves as the “better place to build your PT career,” and here’s why:

Mentorship & Onboarding: Regardless of years of experience, all clinicians are offered a structured onboarding and mentorship program led by trained, hand-selected mentors.

Endless Growth: Multiple specialty/residency programs, a packed CEU calendar, national clinical collaboration, an internal business school, leadership development, CI/Mentor opportunities, a clinical career ladder, and non-clinical career pathways.

Unique Opportunities: Dream of opening your own PT practice? We can help you do that—with equity. Want to travel? We have an internal travel program, too!

Intelligent Documentation: With the utilization of ScribeIQ (an AI documentation tool), clinicians can expect a significant reduction in their normal documentation time, allowing them to spend more quality time with patients and keeping their notes AT work.

Competitive Bonus Plan: Earn a bonus structure that YOU control—not based on your clinic’s revenue.

Manageable Caseloads: We believe in aligning with regional outpatient benchmarks, and we’re proud to offer caseloads that are lower than many of our local competitors. This means you’ll have more time to focus on each patient’s unique needs, resulting in better outcomes and a more fulfilling workday.

Flexible Schedules: We know outpatient ortho has a reputation for long, unpredictable hours, but we work hard to support our clinicians and create schedules that work for both them and their patients.

Top Talent Deserves Top Benefits

Competitive Salary: $80,000–$100,000/year (based on location, experience, hours, certifications, and more).

Incredible Incentives: Financial assistance with student loan repayment (tax-free), relocation assistance, or help to buy out a repayment contract with your current employer. (available for opportunities!)
