Job Description

We're looking for one Staff Physical Therapist in Boulder and one in Longmont. You’ll provide outpatient orthopedic and sports medicine care, with autonomy over your treatment approach and a career path toward Clinic Director or management.

Every evaluation and follow-up is a 30-minute, one-on-one appointment delivered directly by a physical therapist, without PT aides. Expect approximately 15 patients during an eight-hour day that includes a 30-minute lunch, making comfort with this appointment pace important.

Responsibilities

Build individualized treatment plans through one-on-one evaluations for general orthopedic and sports medicine patients.

  • Help patients improve movement and function through care tailored to their needs and goals.
  • Keep every appointment fully PT-led, delivering direct treatment without handing patients off to aides.
  • Take ownership of your treatment approach while exchanging ideas and support with fellow physical therapists.
  • Coordinate with front desk colleagues to keep patient scheduling organized and dependable.

Manage your agreed weekday schedule and caseload while maintaining dedicated attention during each 30-minute visit.

Must-Have

An Active Colorado Physical Therapist License

  • Physical therapy experience, or a strong related background, such as athletic training or massage therapy, for new graduates.
  • Comfort making independent treatment decisions and organizing your work without close oversight.
  • Readiness to provide one-on-one care within the clinic’s 30-minute appointment model.
  • A collaborative, respectful approach to working with fellow therapists and front desk colleagues.

Availability to work on-site in Boulder or Longmont on a full-time weekday schedule of at least 30 hours per week.

Nice to Have

  • One to two years of experience as a physical therapist.
  • Experience in outpatient orthopedics.
  • Experience treating sports medicine patients.

No specialty certifications are required. New graduates with a strong related background are welcome to apply.

Stable salaried compensation: your pay does not decrease because a patient misses an appointment or cancels late.

  • A 401(k) after one year, with a 3% employer match.
  • Separate paid vacation and paid sick time.
  • A continuing education/tuition benefit to support professional development.

Flexible full-time weekday scheduling, starting at 30 hours per week, within clinic hours generally spanning 7 a. m. to 6 p. m. Existing schedules include four 10-hour days and five eight-hour days; clinics are closed on weekends.

A defined path from Staff Physical Therapist toward a Clinic Director or management role.

Requirements

Must hold an active Colorado physical therapist license and demonstrate the ability to work independently in a fast-paced clinical environment. New graduates with a strong background in related fields like athletic training or massage therapy are encouraged to apply.
