Company Description

As a physical therapist, you will diagnose and treat patients who have health conditions that limit their ability to move and perform everyday activities. You will not only help restore their physical function and mobility, you will also work to promote overall wellness and boost their quality of life.

Through your work as a PT, you can help patients avoid surgery and reduce the need for prescription drugs. In many cases, you’ll form long-term relationships with patients and be rewarded by seeing their hard work pay off.

In fact, you’ll act as both a clinical expert and a cheerleader in many scenarios. You will need a deep understanding of human anatomy and kinesiology, but also be adept at motivating and encouraging people who are struggling with pain and physical dysfunction.
