About the Role
We’re hiring a Physical Therapist (DPT) for a maternity leave coverage position in Tempe, with a clear path into a full-time role in our Phoenix clinic.

- Complete documentation in a timely, efficient manner

- Up to $65/hr based on performance and long-term fit
- Opportunity to transition into a stable full-time role
Requirements
- Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT)
- Active Arizona license (or ability to obtain)
- Ortho experience required
- VRT experience = major advantage
- Able to work independently and keep pace
Who This Is Perfect For
- PTs who want strong hourly pay without micromanagement
- Clinicians comfortable in a structured, efficient environment
- Someone open to turning a short-term role into something long-term
Nice Bonus (Not Required)
- Vestibular training/certifications (e.g., American Institute of Balance)
