Lead a new clinic. Grow it. Benefit from its success
We are opening a brand-new HealthSource Chiropractic clinic in East Petersburg, PA and are seeking a Lead Chiropractor / Clinical Director to take ownership of clinical outcomes, team leadership, and clinic growth from day one.
This is more than an associate role-you'll lead, build, and scale a clinic with the support of a proven national system, without the risk of starting from scratch.
What Makes This Opportunity Different
  • Leadership Role from Day One - You are the clinical leader, not just an associate
  • Built-In Systems & Support - Proven HealthSource model, marketing, and operations support
  • Growth-Focused Environment - We care about outcomes, retention, and patient experience
  • Income That Scales With Performance - Your success = your earning potential
  • Opportunity to Grow Beyond One Clinic as we expand
Compensation & Benefits
  • $100,000 - $120,000+ Year 1 Total Compensation
    • Base salary + transparent, performance-based bonus
  • Bonus tied to clinic performance, patient retention, and outcomes
  • Company-paid malpractice insurance
  • Flexible structure (W2 or 1099 options available)
  • Relocation Assistant/Bonus
  • Additional benefits as clinic grows
Path to Ownership (Optional)
High-performing Clinical Directors may have the opportunity to earn equity or transition into clinic ownership over time. This is a real pathway for someone who demonstrates strong leadership, performance, and long-term commitment.
Schedule
  • Monday - Friday
  • Limited evenings and occasional weekends as needed
Your Role as Clinical Director
Clinical Excellence
  • Evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with high-quality chiropractic care
  • Perform manual adjustments and prescribe rehab-based treatment plans
  • Take and interpret diagnostic X-rays when medically necessary
  • Deliver exceptional patient outcomes through personalized care plans
Patient Experience & Retention
  • Educate patients on the long-term benefits of chiropractic care
  • Confidently guide patients through care recommendations and plans
  • Build strong, lasting doctor-patient relationships
Leadership & Clinic Growth
  • Lead and mentor clinic staff
  • Drive key performance metrics (visits, retention, re-exams, patient satisfaction)
  • Run weekly team trainings and ensure alignment with clinic goals
  • Continuously improve systems, workflows, and patient experience
Operations & Accountability
  • Maintain accurate and compliant patient records
  • Track and report clinic performance metrics
  • Collaborate with ownership on growth strategy
Community & Marketing
  • Participate in local outreach and marketing initiatives
  • Help establish the clinic as a trusted provider in the community
Who This Role Is For
  • A self-driven chiropractor who wants to lead, not just treat
  • Someone who is comfortable being measured on performance and outcomes
  • A strong communicator who enjoys educating and connecting with patients
  • A team-oriented leader who can build culture and accountability
  • A doctor who wants growth-clinically, professionally, and financially
Who This Role Is NOT For
  • Doctors looking for a low-volume, adjustment-only position
  • Those uncomfortable with performance metrics or patient retention goals
  • Candidates who prefer strict direction rather than autonomy and ownership
Qualifications
  • Doctor of Chiropractic degree from an accredited program
  • Active Pennsylvania license (or ability to obtain)
  • Eligible for malpractice insurance in PA
  • 2+ years of experience preferred (strong new grads with leadership mindset considered)
  • Strong manual skills and clinical confidence
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
