What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physical Therapist position at Southern Maine Physical Therapy?
Job Overview
We are seeking a skilled Physical Therapist to join our team, full time. The ideal candidate enjoys building relationships with patients and is motivated by continuous learning. Southern Maine PT, a family owned practice established in 2001, prides itself on delivering patient-centered care with one-on-one sessions and continuity with the same therapist. While most of our patients are adults with orthopedic issues, our patient diagnoses vary and we also treat children.
We emphasize career growth through continuing education (both in-house and through skill building courses), mentorship programs, and opportunities for professional development.
