The role at a glance
Schedule: Full-time, 40 hours/week. Monday-Friday, 8 AM-5 PM (1-hour lunch). No nights, no weekends, no on-call, no shift shuffling.
Pay: $58,000-$75,000/year, based on experience. Paid bi-weekly.
Location: 8526 Highway 6 N, Houston, TX 77095 (Copperfield / NW Houston).
Start: August2026
What you'll do
You'll be the clinician our patients see most - delivering the hands-on treatment that moves them through their recovery. Working under the direction of our PT, you'll carry out plans of care: leading therapeutic exercise, manual techniques, modalities, gait and balance training, and patient education.
You'll progress patients within their established plan, keep a close eye on how they're responding, and loop in the supervising PT when something needs a second look or a plan adjustment. Because you'll handle the bulk of follow-up visits, you'll build the kind of real relationships that keep patients showing up and getting better.
The caseload is a true mix - ortho and musculoskeletal (back pain, joint issues, post-surgical rehab, sports injuries), with balance/vestibular and some neuro folded in. No two days look alike, and we're actively growing the ortho side.
Who we're looking for
Active Texas PTA license (or license-eligible). Outpatient experience is a plus - but we're glad to talk to strong new grads ready to do great hands-on work.
Comfortable with a mixed adult outpatient caseload - mostly ortho/MSK, with some neuro and balance/vestibular (40%).
Great with people. You'll see patients more than anyone in the building, so rapport, encouragement, and clear communication are the heart of the job.
Organized with documentation. We run on Prompt EMR - fast and clean, not the documentation slog you may have had elsewhere.
A team player who takes direction well and communicates proactively with the supervising PT and front desk.
What we offer
A real pay range, posted up front - $58,000-$75,000/year depending on experience. No "let's discuss" runaround.
A predictable schedule. No last-minute changes, no scope creep, no "can you cover Friday?"
A strong PT to work with and learn from. Clear plans of care, good communication, and support when you need it - you won't be left guessing.
Manageable caseloads and fair documentation expectations. We want you doing excellent work without burning out.
Room to grow. As patient volume grows, there's a path to take on more responsibility here.
CEU support to keep your license current and your skills sharp.($1000 credit per year)
Benefits: Health, dental, and vision, partially employer-sponsored.
A clinic that actually works. Modern equipment, a clean facility, and a front desk that handles scheduling and intake so you can focus on patients - plus a team of clinicians who'll know you by name, not a staffing pool.
