Job description

Overview

Emory Physical Therapy, part of the Confluent Health family of brands, gives physical therapists an environment built for high-quality care, strong mentorship, and clear paths to grow.

Learn from deep clinical experience. Our Spivey Station clinic is led by a physical therapist and clinic manager with more than 30 years of experience, alongside a highly experienced PTA.

You'll serve a growing, diverse patient population across Jonesboro, Stockbridge, and McDonough, with exposure to a wide range of orthopedic conditions, from post-operative care to sports injuries, and real-time collaboration that sharpens your clinical decision-making and supports better outcomes.

Backed by Emory Healthcare. Emory is the official sports medicine and orthopedic care provider for Atlanta's professional teams and Georgia Tech athletics, and you'll practice in a clinic connected to one of the region's most recognized names in orthopedics.
