Job description

Woodbridge, VA | Full-Time Preferred | Part-Time Considered

A new outpatient physical therapy clinic in Woodbridge, Virginia is seeking a motivated and experienced Physical Therapist to join their founding clinical team.

This is a unique opportunity for a PT who enjoys clinical autonomy and is excited about helping build a new practice from the ground up. The clinic is looking for someone who is comfortable working independently, confident in their clinical decision-making, and interested in helping establish the clinical workflows, treatment approach, and overall standards of care as the practice grows.

The clinic is focused on providing patient-centered, individualized care rather than operating under a high-volume model. Therapists will have the opportunity to work with a diverse adult outpatient population and provide treatment based on each patient's individual needs and goals.

• Health insurance with company assistance toward premium
• Vision insurance
• Paid major holidays
• PTO available upon starting, with additional monthly accrual
• Paid continuing education and specialty training
• Access to a large network of Physical Therapists for collaboration, mentorship, and professional development
• Opportunities to pursue specialty training in areas such as vestibular rehabilitation, balance, neurological rehabilitation, fall prevention, and other relevant specialties
• Potential support for additional specialty certifications based on the clinician's professional goals and the needs of the clinic
• Virginia PT license renewal covered for eligible full-time clinicians
• AI-assisted documentation technology to help reduce administrative burden
• Paid documentation time incorporated into the workday
• Future leadership and advancement opportunities as the clinic grows

Schedule

Full-time preferred; part-time may be considered for the right candidate

A four-day, 10-hour schedule may be considered for the right candidate

$1,000 Welcome Bonus after successful completion of 30 days

$2,000 Founding Team Bonus after successful completion of 12 months

$3,000 PT Referral Bonus for successfully referring a Physical Therapist who is hired

Annual compensation reviews

Salaried clinicians will not have their compensation reduced due to patient cancellations or fluctuations in caseload

Qualifications

• Master's or Doctor of Physical Therapy degree required
• Current or eligible Physical Therapist license in Virginia
• Comfortable working independently and exercising strong clinical judgment
• Outpatient orthopedic experience preferred
• Interest or experience in balance, vestibular rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation, and/or fall prevention is a plus
• Strong communication and patient relationship skills
• Self-motivated and comfortable working in a growing clinic environment
• Excited about the opportunity to help build and shape a new outpatient practice

What Makes This Opportunity Different

This is not a traditional high-volume outpatient setting where therapists are expected to manage multiple patients simultaneously. The goal is to provide high-quality, individualized care, with the treatment model determined by each patient's clinical needs.

More complex or specialized patients may receive one-on-one treatment with the Physical Therapist. As the clinic grows, additional PT and PTA support will be added, creating opportunities to develop a collaborative care model while maintaining strong PT involvement in patient care. As one of the founding clinician, this Physical Therapist will also have the opportunity to:

• Help establish clinical workflows and treatment processes
• Contribute to the development of the clinic's standards of care
• Help shape the clinical culture and patient experience
• Grow alongside the practice as additional clinicians are hired
• Pursue future advancement opportunities into Lead PT and/or Clinical Director roles

The owner and administrative team will provide operational support, allowing the Physical Therapist to remain primarily focused on patient care and clinical responsibilities.
