Build Elite Clinical Skills Inside a Mentorship-Driven Orthopedic Clinic

At Marino Physiotherapy, this is more than a standard PTA role.

This is an opportunity to work directly alongside experienced orthopedic clinicians in a clinic built around mentorship, collaboration, patient outcomes, and long-term clinical growth.

If you are the type of PTA who wants to sharpen your skills, learn at a higher level, and become exceptionally confident in outpatient orthopedics, this role was designed for you.

You will be supported, coached, challenged, and developed step-by-step inside a team-focused environment where learning is part of the culture every single day.

What You’ll Receive

  • Pay: $22.00 - $26.00 per hour
  • Flexible schedule
  • Paid Time Off
  • Retirement plan
  • Life insurance
  • Professional development assistance
  • Structured mentorship and clinical development
  • Weekly education and skill-building sessions
  • Direct exposure to advanced orthopedic rehab
  • Clear pathway toward increased treatment responsibility
  • Collaborative outpatient environment
  • Modern boutique clinic setting
  • Strong team culture focused on growth and excellence
  • Hands-on learning with experienced clinicians
  • Long-term career growth opportunities

Why This Role Stands Out

Most PTA positions focus on filling schedules.

This role focuses on building clinicians.

You will work directly with a Physical Therapist in a collaborative treatment model designed to help you continuously improve your confidence, clinical reasoning, communication skills, and orthopedic treatment ability.

Every patient is treated 1-on-1, allowing for a more focused and rewarding clinical experience for both patients and providers.

This environment gives you the ability to learn, ask questions, receive feedback, and grow inside a clinic that truly values development.

Your Growth Track

Your role will evolve as your confidence and skill set continue to grow.

Early responsibilities may include:

  • Clinical support and treatment assistance
  • Documentation support and scribing
  • Patient flow coordination
  • Hands-on orthopedic learning
  • Weekly mentorship and education sessions
  • Direct collaboration with experienced clinicians

As you continue progressing, you will transition into increasing PTA treatment responsibilities while helping manage a shared caseload alongside a PT.

Specialty Growth Opportunities

Depending on your interests and development, future opportunities may include:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Rehabilitation
  • Parkinson’s Disease Programs
  • Balance and Fall Prevention
  • Gait Training
  • Amputee Rehabilitation
  • POTS and Autonomic Care
  • Advanced Musculoskeletal Development
  • Preparation toward Musculoskeletal A.P.P. pathways

Who This Role Is Perfect ForThis position is ideal for a PTA who:

  • Wants mentorship and long-term development
  • Enjoys outpatient orthopedic environments
  • Is highly coachable and growth-minded
  • Wants to become more advanced clinically
  • Values teamwork and collaboration
  • Takes pride in delivering an exceptional patient experience
  • May eventually pursue a PTA-to-PT bridge pathway
  • Wants to work inside a patient-first clinic culture

Qualifications

  • Licensed Physical Therapist Assistant in Tennessee or eligibility required
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred
  • Kinesiology or Exercise Science background highly valued
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills
  • Positive and professional attitude
  • Dependable work ethic
  • Desire for both clinical and personal growth

Why Marino Physiotherapy

Here, PTs and PTAs collaborate closely to deliver individualized care while continuing to sharpen their skills in a supportive, mentorship-focused environment.

You’ll join a team that values learning, communication, and helping clinicians build meaningful, long-term careers in outpatient orthopedic care.
