Job description

Physical Therapist Job in Fort Wayne, IN

What Are You Looking For?

Are you looking for a structured mentorship program that helps you grow confidently into an exceptional orthopedic clinician instead of being "thrown into the schedule" without support?

Are you looking for a competitive compensation model?

Do you want advanced continuing education opportunities, including 100+ hours of manual therapy training, dry needling certification opportunities, in-house continuing education, and a company that truly invests in your growth?

Are you looking for a true one-on-one treatment model?

Do you want opportunities to grow beyond patient care through leadership development?

Are you looking for flexibility and work-life balance with flexible scheduling and no weekends?

Do you want to work in a positive, family-oriented culture where teammates support one another, leadership is accessible, and people genuinely enjoy coming to work?

At ProTailored, our goal is not simply to hire therapists. Our goal is to help PTs become exceptional clinicians while building meaningful long-term careers in a supportive, growth-oriented environment through a 12-month structured mentorship program, advanced continuing education training, one-on-one patient care, leadership development opportunities, scheduling flexibility, and a strong family culture.

1. Strong Compensation and Benefits

We provide strong compensation and long-term career value.

Our compensation philosophy includes:

• Competitive compensation package with earning potential from $71,000 to $98,000+


• Significant Quarterly Bonus opportunities


• Comprehensive benefits - Health/Vision/Dental Insurance, 3% Retirement Match, Disability Insurance, Malpractice Insurance, PTO


• $1,500 continuing education budget

Compensation should support a sustainable and rewarding long-term career, not just short-term productivity.

2. Advanced Clinical Training and Continuing Education

"We have the BEST of the BEST and the knowledge our therapists possess is second to none."

We are deeply committed to developing highly skilled orthopedic clinicians.

As part of onboarding and mentorship, therapists receive:

• 100+ hours of manual therapy training integrated into onboarding


• $1,500 annual continuing education budget


• Dry needling certification opportunities within the first year


• In-house continuing education courses 2x per year, brought directly to ProTailored from organizations such as Great Lakes Seminars

Continual growth and learning lead to:

• Better patient outcomes


• Greater clinician confidence


• Better teamwork and collaboration


• Long-term career satisfaction

3. Structured Mentorship

"I never felt like I was on my own. The mentorship and support helped me grow faster and become more confident as a clinician."

At ProTailored, great clinicians are developed intentionally, not accidentally.

Every PT enters our ProTailored Mentorship Program (PMP), a structured 1-year mentorship and development system designed to help therapists transition confidently into becoming exceptional orthopedic clinicians.

Unlike many clinics that offer "mentorship" in name only, our program provides:

• Weekly mentor meetings for collaboration and shadowing


• Formal observation and feedback sessions


• Case review and coaching


• Professional presentations and book studies


• Ongoing support for entire first year

The mentorship process is designed to help therapists grow clinically, professionally, and personally while building confidence in a supportive environment.

Our goal is not simply to hire PTs. Our goal is to help PTs become exceptional clinicians, communicators, leaders, and teammates.

4. One-on-one Patient Care

"The 1-on-1 care is a game changer."

The best patient outcomes happen when therapists are given the time and freedom to focus fully on the patient in front of them.

Our one-on-one treatment model allows PTs to:

• Treat in private treatment rooms


• Build stronger patient relationships


• Deliver individualized care


• Think critically and clinically


• Adapt treatment based on patient response


• Focus on quality rather than volume

We are committed to helping therapists practice the way they envisioned when entering the profession.

5. Leadership and Growth Opportunities

"I feel that I have a great opportunity to work and grow here at ProT."

As ProTailored continues to grow, we are committed to developing leaders internally.

We want therapists who are excited not only about clinical growth, but also about helping shape the future of the company.

Growth opportunities include:

• Clinical mentorship roles


• Clinical Site Coordinator


• Clinic Director career tracks


• Regional Director opportunities

We believe in creating opportunities for growth-mindful clinicians who want to lead and make an impact.

6. Flexible Scheduling and Work-Life Balance

"Having the ability to flex my schedule when life comes up has made a huge difference for me and my family."

We understand that great clinicians also have lives, families, and responsibilities outside of work.

Our scheduling philosophy is designed to provide flexibility while maintaining strong clinical standards.

Benefits include:

• Make your own schedule


• Ability to flex hours when life comes up - Reduced need to use PTO for appointments or family obligations


• No weekends!

We aim to create an environment where therapists can succeed professionally without constantly sacrificing personal responsibilities.

7. Family-Oriented Culture

"I have the best team."

Culture matters deeply at ProTailored. We strive to create an environment where therapists genuinely enjoy coming to work, support one another, and feel valued as people rather than simply employees.

Strong relationships create stronger teams, better communication, and better patient experiences.

Required Qualifications

• Current and active Physical Therapy license


• Passion for outpatient orthopedic physical therapy
