    Physical Therapist

    About the Role

    We are seeking a motivated, compassionate, and skilled Physical Therapist to join our growing team at Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. In this role, you will play a key part in delivering evidence-based care to a diverse patient population with a wide range of orthopedic conditions.

     

    Our patients are primarily working-age adults—from young professionals to individuals in their 60s and 70s—many of whom qualify for Medicaid but do not have employer-sponsored coverage. While we occasionally serve teens, children (ages 9+), and older adults, these cases are less frequent.

     

    This position offers the opportunity to make a meaningful impact in patients’ lives while advancing your own professional growth within a supportive and forward-thinking organization.

    Key Responsibilities

    + Perform comprehensive evaluations, including goniometry, manual muscle testing, and functional assessments.

    + Develop and implement individualized, evidence-based treatment plans in collaboration with physicians.

    + Deliver a variety of therapeutic techniques, such as therapeutic exercise, manual therapy (Graston, Dry Needling, MDT, Mulligan), and modalities to reduce pain and restore function.

    + Educate patients on their condition, treatment goals, and strategies for long-term recovery and injury prevention.

    + Document treatment progress accurately in Epic Hyperspace, our integrated EMR system.

    + Collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to ensure seamless, patient-centered care.

    + Maintain a 1:1 Physical Therapist-to-PTA supervision ratio for continuity of care.

    + Pursue ongoing professional development, including advanced techniques such as Blood Flow Restriction Therapy.
