Work-life Balance 59-64 visits/wk Mentorship/Support
Position is located in Little Falls, NJ
Ready to Treat Patients Without Burning Out?
What if you could grow clinically, work with purpose, and still have a life outside the clinic?
At Total Recovery Physical Therapy (TRPT), you can do your best work with great people and still live the life you've always wanted as a DPT.
We’re not a corporate mill & we're not another outpatient clinic.
We’re a therapist-owned, high-performance team that blends advanced clinical systems with a championship team-style culture.
We treat with purpose, mentor with intention, and celebrate excellence without sacrificing balance.
Who We’re Looking For
You’re a purpose-driven Doctor of Physical Therapy who:
- Thrives in a collaborative, team-oriented environment
- Seeks mentorship and mastery, not micromanagement
- Believes your career should support your life—not consume it
- Values growth, ownership, and accountability
- Wants to be part of something bigger—challenge what outpatient practice looks like and redefine what “patient-centered” really means
What We’re Really Looking For
- A Passion for People: You care deeply about your patients, not just their pain points, but their progress. You believe in delivering individualized, evidence-based care that actually changes lives.
- A True Team Player: You love collaborating, lifting others up, and growing within a positive, supportive clinic culture. You believe great care happens when great people work together.
- Motivated and Driven: You show up ready and committed to doing things with excellence — even when no one’s watching.
- A Humble Learner: You ask questions, accept feedback, and seek growth. You want mentorship and continuing education because you’re hungry to get better, not just busier.
- An Owner's Mindset: You take pride in your work and own your outcomes. You understand that every patient is a reflection of your standards, and you never settle for average.
- Positive Energy is Your Superpower: You bring joy, encouragement, and fun into the clinic. You lift the vibe for your team and your patients.
- A Strong Communicator; You know how to talk to patients, not at them. You can simplify, motivate, and empathize — all in the same sentence.
- Growth-Minded: You’re not just here for a paycheck — you're here to build something great, improve your craft, and be part of a practice that’s on the rise.
If that sounds like you, we want to meet you!
Why Clinicians Choose TRPT
- Meaningful Results: Every patient is a success story. We design treatment plans that are customized, effective, and built on trust.
- Championship Team Culture: We row in the same direction. No egos, no gossip—just collaboration, ownership, and mutual respect.
- Growth & Mentorship: Weekly mentorship, in-services, and coaching. You’ll receive structured 1:1 development time—always on the clock, never “extra”.
- Challenge the Norms of Private Outpatient Practice
- Treat like an expert with innovative state-of-the-art technologies that are used by elite athletes, such as the Neufit Neubie device.
- Work-Life balance: Dedicated time to grow - We build schedules to help you breathe, not burn out.
We constantly refine our systems and care models. Your ideas matter, your voice is heard, and your input drives change.
