Job Description

Sports Physical Therapist

\n

Washington, DC

\n

\n

We are seeking an experienced Sports Physical Therapist to join a high performing orthopedic and sports medicine team in our nation's capital.

\n

\n

This is not a traditional orthopedic physical therapy clinic.

\n

\n

We work with high level athletes from across the country, including collegiate athletes and professionals from the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, MLS, and UFC.

\n

\n

Our team brings everything together under one roof, including advanced imaging, ambulatory surgery and physical therapy.

\n

\n

Our patients have access to some of the most respected surgeons in the country who specialize in complex sports injuries and have extensive experience of treating ACL injuries.

\n

\n

The Opportunity

\n

\n

You will work alongside a team of experienced Physical Therapists and orthopedic specialists treating athletes throughout the entire continuum of care, including post operative rehabilitation and return to sport.

\n

\n

The ideal candidate is someone who understands athletes, enjoys working with high-performance patients and is comfortable treating complex orthopedic conditions involving the ACL, shoulder, elbow and other sports related injuries.

\n

\n

Our typical schedule includes approximately one new patient and two to three follow up visits per day, allowing you to spend meaningful time with each athlete rather than moving patients through a high-volume clinic.

\n

\n

What Makes This Different

\n

\n

You will not be treating the typical orthopedic patient population found in a traditional outpatient clinic.

\n

\n

Our patients include professional athletes who are sometimes flown in from across the country specifically to work with our physicians and rehabilitation teams.

\n

\n

You will have the opportunity to work directly with athletes who expect an extremely high level of clinical expertise, communication and personalized care.

\n

\n

We are a team of four Physical Therapists and are looking for another high caliber clinician who wants to be surrounded by other "A players" who take pride in working with athletes.

\n
