Job Summary

Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) – Unique Growth Opportunity (PTA License Required)

Marino Physiotherapy | Knoxville, TN

Are you a PTA who wants more than a routine PTA job? This is NOT your typical PTA position.

Marino Physiotherapy is seeking a motivated Physical Therapist Assistant to join our growing outpatient orthopedic clinic in Knoxville. This role offers mentorship, hands‑on learning, and a clear path for professional learning and growth. Work directly with experienced clinicians in a supportive, upbeat environment focused on quality care - not rushed volume.

What Makes This Role Different

This is not a “thrown into a caseload and hope you survive” position.

This is a development‑focused role designed to help you grow step‑by‑step with mentorship, training, and real clinical exposure.

Initial Role Includes

• Clinical support / treatment / tech duties
• Administrative support and patient flow coordination
• Documentation assistance / scribing
• Hands‑on learning beside experienced clinicians
• Weekly education and skill‑building sessions
• Direct one‑on‑one mentorship

As your skills progress, you will transition into increasing PTA treatment responsibility and be paired with a PT to help manage a shared caseload.

Our Treatment Model

• Every patient is seen 1-on-1 each visit
• PTAs receive regular collaboration, guidance, and progression planning
• Team‑based care is the norm
• Quality and outcomes come first

This creates a strong learning environment where PTAs can continue developing instead of feeling professionally isolated.

Growth Opportunities / Specialty Tracks

• Orthopedics / Sports Rehab
• Parkinson's disease Programs
• Balance / Fall Prevention
• Gait Training
• Amputee Rehab
• POTS / Autonomic Care
• Advanced musculoskeletal skill development
