Physical Therapist

About the Role

At West Texas Rehab Center, we give you the space, support, and autonomy to practice the way PT was meant to be practiced—patient-first, evidence-driven, and team-supported.

What You’ll Do

  • Work with a highly educated team of specialists
  • Perform comprehensive evaluations and build individualized plans of care
  • Deliver evidence-based treatments that actually move the needle
  • Progress patients with clinical reasoning, not cookie-cutter protocols
  • Use therapeutic exercise, manual techniques, and treatments effectively
  • Educate patients so they understand the why, not just the reps
  • Document clearly, accurately, and efficiently (we respect your time)
  • Collaborate with physicians and care teams to optimize outcomes
  • Supervise students and help shape the next generation of clinicians
  • Ensure accurate billing and coding that reflects the care provided

What Makes This Role Different

  • Clinical autonomy – You’re trusted to think, not just follow scripts
  • Team-first culture – You’re never on an island
  • No grind mentality – Patient care > pointless productivity pressure
  • Growth opportunities – Mentorship, leadership, and specialty development
  • Mission-driven work – You’re part of something bigger than a clinic

What We’re Looking For

You might be a great fit if you:

  • Care more about outcomes than just checking boxes
  • Like collaborating but can confidently lead your patients
  • Want to grow—not coast
  • Bring energy, empathy, and just enough personality to make patients actually want to come back

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a place where:

  • Your work matters
  • Your voice is heard
  • And your patients actually get better

Requirements

  • Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapy program
  • Current Texas PT license (or eligible)
  • Strong clinical reasoning and a patient-first mindset
  • Ability to adapt, problem-solve, and think on your feet
  • A team mentality with a little “let’s make things better” energy
  • Committed to high-quality patient care and ethical practice
  • Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented
  • Ability to lift up to 55 lbs and assist with patient transfers as part of a team
  • Ability to stand, walk, and be in an active setting for extended periods of time
