What are the responsibilities and job description for the Physical Therapist position at Hire Health?
Our client is seeking a full-time Physical Therapist to join their growing, privately owned practice in Eliot, ME. They are a one-on-one, patient-centered clinic committed to delivering high-quality care in a low-pressure, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable environment.
As the practice continues to grow, our client is looking for energetic, personable therapists who take pride in their craft, value teamwork, and are passionate about helping patients truly recover—not just manage symptoms. The ideal candidate enjoys collaborating with colleagues, delivering exceptional care, and representing the practice at occasional community events.
Why Our Client?
At our client’s practice, work-life balance isn’t a buzzword—it’s a priority. They believe that the best patient care comes from clinicians who feel supported, rested, and fulfilled both inside and outside of work.
They offer:
- Generous paid vacation time
- Paid sick time
- Major holidays off
- A culture that encourages you to actually use your earned time off
They also believe work should be fun. From birthday celebrations and holiday parties to friendly clinic-wide competitions, the team intentionally builds enjoyment into the workweek—because loving where you work matters.
Clinical Approach
Our client prioritizes a hands-on, manual, and functional therapy approach focused on long-term recovery—not temporary relief. Manageable daily schedules and a strict one-on-one model mean:
- No double-booking
- Ample time for documentation
- Meaningful provider-to-provider communication
- The ability to give each patient your full attention
The clinics are bright, open, and thoughtfully designed—free of the typical “gym” or “doctor’s office” feel. Each therapist has their own dedicated space, eliminating the need to move equipment or personal items throughout the day. Private treatment rooms are available for patients who prefer added privacy.

- Evaluate patients and identify individualized goals and treatment plans
