Why You’ll Love This Job

FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers in Chapel Hill is seeking a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) who values patient-centered care, clinical autonomy, and meaningful outcomes in an owner-led outpatient clinic.

We believe the best results happen when patients are truly heard and clinicians are trusted to think. Our clinic is intentionally designed around 1-on-1 treatment, individualized care, and outcomes—not volume, checkboxes, or rigid protocols. PTAs here are given the time, space, and professional respect needed to treat patients thoughtfully and effectively.

If you prefer high-volume, protocol-driven clinics, this is not the right role.

How We Care for Patients

  • 1-on-1 treatment with patients—no overlapping visits

  • Time and structure that allow patients to be listened to, not rushed

  • Treatment plans guided by clinical reasoning and patient goals, not templates

  • Success is measured by outcomes and progress, not by completing a checklist

  • A team culture that values communication, continuity, and trust

How We Support Clinicians

  • PTAs are trusted to use judgment, curiosity, and adaptability in patient care

  • No mandated treatment formulas or micromanaged supervising structure

  • Clinical staff actively contribute to clinic policies and workflows

  • Leadership works to align patient populations with clinicians’ interests and career goals

  • Independence is paired with professionalism, accountability, and mutual respect

Who Thrives Here

  • Passion for patient-centered, one-on-one care

  • Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of outcomes

  • Curious, thoughtful, and adaptable in clinical decision-making

  • Interested in growing with a small, stable, owner-led clinic

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation

  • $3,000 hiring bonus after 90 days of employment

  • Annual tuition reimbursement for continuing education and relevant certifications

  • A collaborative, experienced clinical team

  • Modern outpatient orthopedic and balance-focused environment

  • A clinic culture that prioritizes patients and clinicians

If you’re a PTA who wants to practice real one-on-one care, be trusted as a professional, and celebrate patient outcomes—not productivity metrics—we’d love to talk.
