This outpatient Physical Therapist position is based in Erie, Pennsylvania, a vibrant lakeside community offering a unique blend of urban amenities and natural beauty. Situated along the shores of Lake Erie, the city features Presque Isle State Park with miles of sandy beaches, walking and biking trails, boating, and year-round outdoor recreation. Residents enjoy a reasonable cost of living, diverse dining and entertainment options, and easy access to family-friendly attractions, cultural events, and sports. Erie’s strong sense of community and growing healthcare sector make it an appealing place to build a long-term career while maintaining an excellent quality of life. The clinic is part of a large, well-established rehabilitation network known for its focus on clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, and professional development. The outpatient center is designed to provide a modern, efficient, and patient-friendly environment, with well-equipped gym space, private treatment areas, and up-to-date therapeutic modalities to support high-quality care. You will work alongside a collaborative team of physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, and support staff who are committed to teamwork, communication, and shared success. In this role, you will evaluate and treat a primarily orthopedic and musculoskeletal caseload, including patients with acute and chronic conditions, post-surgical needs, and sports-related injuries. Responsibilities include comprehensive patient evaluations, development and progression of individualized plans of care, delivery of manual therapy and therapeutic exercise programs, patient and family education, and coordination with referring providers. You will be expected to use outcome measures, follow evidence-based guidelines, and contribute to a positive, goal-driven therapy experience. A typical day includes a steady schedule of patient appointments with time designated for documentation, care coordination, and team communication. Patient volume and scheduling are designed to support both quality of care and productivity expectations. You may have the opportunity to participate in or help develop specialty programs aligned with your interests, such as sports rehabilitation, industrial rehabilitation, or balance and fall prevention initiatives. The environment encourages collaboration, mentorship, and participation in continuing education to support your growth as a clinician. Shifts are generally daytime, weekday hours, with occasional flexibility based on clinic needs and patient scheduling patterns. This structure supports work-life balance while maintaining consistent access for patients. With a supportive team atmosphere, opportunities for clinical focus areas, and the lifestyle benefits of living in a lakefront city like Erie, this role offers a compelling combination of professional fulfillment and personal enjoyment.
