Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) – Outpatient Orthopedic Clinic | Phoenix Metro & Yuma, AZ

We are partnering with a well-established, growing private practice outpatient physical therapy group with 9 clinic locations (7 in the Phoenix/Metro area, 2 in Yuma) to find dedicated and team-oriented Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) to join their team. This is a fantastic opportunity for PTAs at any experience level who thrive in a collaborative, patient-centered environment that values people over productivity metrics.

Position Details

• Setting: Outpatient Orthopedic / Private Practice
• Patient Population: Adult & Mixed/Age-Diverse

• Assignment Type: Permanent | Temp-to-Hire
• Location: Multiple locations across Phoenix/Metro Area & Yuma, AZ

About the Role

As a PTA, you'll carry out treatment plans established by supervising Physical Therapists for an adult and mixed-age outpatient orthopedic population. PTAs in this practice see an average of 11–14 patients per day and do not perform evaluations, allowing you to focus entirely on delivering quality hands-on care. You'll be backed by a team of aides and techs with BA degrees handling therapeutic exercise, keeping your schedule focused on skilled treatment.

The practice is home to a team of 30+ therapists across 9 clinics, built on a culture of teamwork, mentorship, and clinical growth. There are no rigid productivity quotas — the importance of productivity is discussed collaboratively, not enforced as a metric.

Documentation is made easy with Clinicient / InsightGo EMR powered by Comprehend PT AI Scribe — so you spend less time charting and more time with patients.

Key Responsibilities

• Implement individualized treatment plans under the direction and supervision of a licensed PT
• Deliver skilled therapeutic interventions for adult outpatient orthopedic patients
• Monitor and report patient progress to the supervising PT
• Maintain accurate, timely documentation using Clinicient/InsightGo with AI Scribe support
• Build genuine therapeutic rapport with patients and contribute to a positive team culture
• Collaborate with PTs, aides, and support staff in a team-oriented setting

Preferred Skills & Specializations

All experience levels are welcome. The practice actively supports continuing education and will partner with staff to achieve higher-level clinical credentials, including:

• Orthopedic rehabilitation
• Manual therapy techniques
• Vestibular rehabilitation
• Trigger point dry needling

What They're Looking For

Above all else, this team values interpersonal skills and being a true team player. Strong rapport-building and communication are the top priority — more so than clinical specialty or certifications. If you're personable, collaborative, and committed to both your patients and your teammates, you'll fit right in.
