Why You'll Love This Job

Grow your career in a focused, patient-centered outpatient ENT practice with a strong emphasis on vestibular rehabilitation. We are seeking a Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) to join our clinical team and support evidence-based care for patients experiencing balance, dizziness, and vestibular disorders.

In this role, you will work closely with licensed Physical Therapists to carry out individualized treatment plans, provide one-on-one patient care, and contribute to a calm, well-organized clinical environment.

We use appropriate technology and current best practices to ensure high-quality care while maintaining realistic workflows and strong clinical standards.

This position is ideal for a PTA who values structure, accountability, and meaningful patient relationships, and who enjoys being part of a practice where professionalism, respect, and collaboration are expected and supported.

  • Support clinic workflows by following established procedures and contributing constructive feedback when recurring challenges impact patient care or operations.
  • Assist with onboarding and orientation of new team members as directed.
  • Help maintain clinic space, equipment, and supplies to ensure a safe, organized, and efficient treatment environment.
  • Reinforce provider-recommended services and support patient understanding of available clinic services within scope and established workflows.
