Job Description

If you’re a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) who wants to empower patients to achieve meaningful outcomes through compassionate and patient-centered therapy—this is it.

In this role, you’ll provide physical therapy services to the adult/geriatric population, working closely with patients to improve independence, mobility, safety, and overall quality of life. You’ll have the opportunity to follow patient progress over time and deliver truly patient-centered care in a collaborative clinical environment.

Here’s your chance to focus on what matters most—quality outcomes, consistency of care, and clinical autonomy while making a meaningful difference every day.

Physical Therapist Career Context

In Florida, the Physical Therapy weighted monthly median benchmark on WeekdayDoc is ~$90k (723 salary observations; 3,249 listings), vs ~$94k nationally (14,723 salary observations; 56,085 listings). Monthly aggregates cover 2026-01-01 through 2026-10-01; these are not the modal's selected comparable-job medians.

The cost-of-living index for Florida is 103.4 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$65k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $63k in an average-cost state. 58.1% of Florida clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).

Location & Logistics

Florida has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$65k midpoint, that is roughly $3k–$5k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
