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.
