Job description

Join the Movement!

Finding a PT job is easy. Finding a good PT job is hard. We built Highbar for clinicians who want clarity, support, and a sustainable career, not just another offer.

Highbar Physical Therapy is a premier, PT-led outpatient practice across New England. We are a teaching practice by design, focused on empowering clinicians to practice at the top of their license while delivering exceptional patient care. Our care model is intentionally designed to prioritize clinical autonomy, reasonable caseload expectations, and built-in mentorship, so Physical Therapists can grow confidently without burning out.

What Your Day Actually Looks Like at Highbar

We believe clarity builds trust. Here’s what you can expect:

• Patient volume: Lower than industry norms, our expectations are less than 12 patients per day
• Visit structure: 1:1 patient care
• Documentation: AI-supported documentation + Prompt EMR to reduce after-hours documentation
• Schedules: Predictable, thoughtfully built schedules
• Care decisions: PT-led clinical autonomy— you decide the plan of care
• Support staff: Exercise Specialists to support treatment flow so you can focus on being a clinician

If something starts to creep toward burnout, leadership intervenes early. That’s part of the job design— not an afterthought.

Mentorship & Professional Development

Highbar is a teaching practice by design. Professional development is part of your workweek—not something you squeeze in to meet your CEU requirements:

• 2 paid mentorship hours/week for your first 12 weeks
• Structured onboarding with a Clinic Director + Peer Mentor
• Monthly Skillz meetings (onsite CE, every month)
• Core-4 Series to align clinical decision-making and PATTOTL principles
• In-house Orthopedic Residency, Dry Needling (Level I & II), and COMT pathways
• Specialty SIGs (Pelvic Health, Sports, Neuro, Vestibular, Pediatrics, and more)

We invest $15,000+ in your professional development in your first 18–24 months!

You'll Thrive at Highbar if You Value:

• Practicing as a clinician—not a productivity unit
• Autonomy paired with real support
• Clear expectations around workload and growth
• Leadership with clinical backgrounds
• Feedback that’s welcomed and acted on

What You'll Need:

• Master’s or Doctorate in Physical Therapy from an accredited program
