What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physical Therapist position at APTA New York?
Description
Repsher Physical Therapy | Albany, NY
Repsher Physical Therapy is seeking a motivated, personable Physical Therapist to join our established outpatient practice in Albany, New York. We are an independently owned physical therapy practice that has served the Capital Region since 1980, with a strong commitment to providing individualized, high-quality patient care.
Our therapists work in a collaborative environment that values clinical judgment, professional autonomy, continued learning, and the ability to spend meaningful time with patients. We treat a diverse outpatient population, including orthopedic and musculoskeletal conditions, post-operative rehabilitation, sports injuries, balance and vestibular disorders, and patients working to return to higher levels of activity and function.
The Position
The Physical Therapist will evaluate and treat patients across a broad range of diagnoses while developing individualized plans of care based on each patient's goals and functional needs. Our therapists are encouraged to use their clinical judgment and individual treatment style while collaborating with an experienced team of clinicians.
Responsibilities Include
Our approximately 7,000-square-foot Albany facility provides therapists with the space, equipment, and clinical resources to treat patients throughout the rehabilitation continuum—from early-stage recovery through advanced strengthening, balance, and return-to-sport training.
Our clinical resources include advanced balance and gait technology, a ceiling-mounted safety harness system, therapeutic laser, blood flow restriction training, surface EMG biofeedback, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, compression and cold therapy, strength and performance equipment, and other rehabilitation technologies.
Our clinicians bring experience in orthopedic rehabilitation, sports medicine, McKenzie Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), vestibular rehabilitation, balance and fall prevention, manual therapy, and post-operative rehabilitation. This diversity of experience creates a collaborative setting where clinicians can learn from one another while continuing to develop their own areas of interest and expertise.
Why Repsher Physical Therapy?
As an independently owned practice, we believe excellent physical therapy starts with giving clinicians the environment, resources, and autonomy needed to provide excellent care. We value collaboration, professional development, continuing education, and building lasting relationships with our patients and community.
We welcome both new graduates and experienced Physical Therapists. Whether you are beginning your career or looking for an environment where you can continue to develop as a clinician, Repsher Physical Therapy offers the opportunity to work alongside experienced therapists, utilize a wide range of clinical resources, and provide individualized care in a well-equipped outpatient setting.
