We appreciate our team members as individuals. Each person brings specific skills to their role, with different areas of interest and paths they would like to pursue. As a company of fewer than 100 employees, we offer the unique opportunity to foster both your personal and professional growth. You'll have direct access to managers, directors, and our owners (both clinicians at heart) - a team completely dedicated to supporting you and helping you navigate your career path to achieve your goals. In the last 3 years alone we have created a dozen new positions to act as stepping stones into leadership roles. Mentorship. At Elliott PT we cultivate an environment of support, collaboration and learning from day one. We've carefully selected our teams to ensure each clinic is staffed with the brightest, most talented and supportive professionals. When you start, you'll work closely with your Clinical Manager to complete a structured alignment program. Within the first two months you will be connected with a colleague mentor within your clinic. This mentorship will help strengthen your clinical confidence, refine your skills, develop your connection to the company, and provide guidance throughout your journey at Elliott PT. In addition to one-on-one mentoring, each clinical team hosts a monthly round table journal discussion or in-service to provide group learning experiences. We also offer an opt-in mentorship program every fall where you will have the opportunity to be paired with another seasoned clinician based on similar areas of interest to focus on your goals for growth and development. Autonomy. You will have the flexibility to work with your manager and create a schedule that works with your life and prioritizes what is most important to you. The same is true for scheduling your patients. Unique experiences. We have many opportunities where our clinicians work directly with patient populations of their choice: Fitness Unlimited (an all women's gym), Fuller Village (an over 55 community), our aquatics program at the YMCA in Easton, Boston Arts Academy (performing artists), Fontbonne, Hingham and Milton High Schools and with collegiate athletes at Curry College and Stonehill College. Our team members that participate in these satellite clinics treat onsite, working collaboratively with facility contacts, ATCs and strength and conditioning coaches. Excellence. The positive impact we have on our communities is reflected in our teams' consistent 5-star Google ratings. You'll be working alongside some of the top clinicians in the field. Over the years, we've earned recognition with Neighbor's Choice Awards, Community Choice Awards, Best Physical Therapists in Boston, and in 2023, we were honored with the Best of the South Shore award for physical therapy services.
