the Way You Always Wanted

Submit Application

Tired of 3–4 patients an hour and charting until 9 pm? See max 10–12 patients/day, deliver real 1-on-1 care (40–60 min visits), finish notes before you leave, and live in beautiful Traverse City. Highest-rated clinic in northern Michigan is hiring experienced PTs ready for a better life.

Tired of Being Treated Like a Billing Machine?

You're a damn good therapist.
You went into this to actually help people—not race through 18–22 visits a day, triple-book evals, and go home exhausted while your family waits.

You're exhausted from:

  • 90–100%+ productivity expectations
  • Corporate metrics punishing extra time with complex cases (like that post-op shoulder)
  • Rushing patients out the door and feeling guilty
  • Wondering if you can sustain this for another 15–20 years without full burnout

We get it. We've been you.

Physical Therapy Jobs in Traverse City, MI:
The Truth About Working Here

Six months ago we got 1–2 apps/week (mostly new grads who ghosted). Then we started telling the truth.

Now? 4–6 qualified, experienced PTs apply every week - we've turned people away.

Here's what we actually deliver:

  • Maximum 10–12 patients per day (never double-booked)
  • 100% true 1-on-1 care, 40–60 minute visits—YOU control the plan, not insurance algorithms
  • Documentation finished before you leave (best AI scribe + templates—most finish notes in <4 minutes)
  • No nights, no weekends, no on-call, no holidays
  • 3 weeks PTO starting year one (and we want you to use it)
  • Top 10% compensation in Michigan: $75,000–$90,000 base + real bonuses (team averaged $12K–$22K extra profit-sharing last year)
  • Full benefits: health, dental, 401(k) match, CEU budget (covers what you want), loan repayment & sign-on bonuses available
  • Weekly mentorship with owners who still treat full-time and built the #1 rated clinic in northern Michigan

Our team is continuously on the hunt for therapy and administrative staff who thrive on new challenges and are passionate about
helping others. Our Traverse City, MI physical therapy clinic is dedicated to helping patients become pain-free so they can get back to doing what they love.

Why Physical Therapists Love Living & Working in Traverse City, MI

While friends in Grand Rapids or Detroit fight traffic, you'll:

  • Live 10 minutes from work on Old Mission Peninsula or Leelanau
  • Ski or fat-tire bike at lunch in winter
  • Kayak Boardman Lake before work in summer
  • Enjoy world-class wine, farm-to-table food (without $80 plates)
  • Raise a family in great schools with basically no violent crime
  • Earn upper-quartile Michigan money while others think you "took a pay cut to move north"

This Isn't for Everyone—
But It Might Be Your Last Career Move

If you want 25+ patients/day and RVU chasing, stop reading—we'll both be miserable.

But if you're the clinician who still lights up when a 65-year-old ditches their cane... If you want energy left for your spouse, kids, dog, or fly rod... If you're ready to practice at the highest level without selling your soul...

...then Superior Physical Therapy is your spot.

Benefits That Actually Mean Something – Because You Deserve More Than Just a Paycheck

We’re not listing perks to sound corporate. These are the things that let you breathe again, love your job, and actually enjoy the life you’ve earned.

  • Loan repayment program available …so that you can finally stop stressing about student debt every month and start building the future you dreamed of when you chose this profession.
  • Sign-on bonuses available …so that you can make the move to Traverse City without the financial fear, and hit the ground running in a place that values you from day one.
  • 401(k) + matching …so that you can save for retirement with real support, knowing your hard work today secures peace of mind tomorrow—not just endless charting.
  • Continuing education credits (with a budget that actually covers what you want) …so that you can keep growing as a clinician, chase the latest techniques that excite you, and feel proud of the care you deliver every single day.
  • Dental insurance …so that you (and your family) can smile confidently, without worrying about surprise bills derailing your hard-earned balance.
  • Flexible schedule …so that you can be there for soccer games, date nights, or that spontaneous sunset paddle on Boardman Lake—because life happens outside the clinic walls.
  • Health insurance + Health savings account …so that you can focus on healing others without the constant anxiety of your own health costs draining your energy.
  • Opportunities for advancement …so that you can grow into leadership, ownership tracks, or whatever lights you up—without clawing through corporate politics.
  • Paid time off (3 weeks starting year one—and we actually encourage you to use it) …so that you can recharge, travel, ski fresh powder at lunch, or just sleep in without guilt, and come back to work energized instead of exhausted.

And yes—top 10% compensation in Michigan ($75,000–$90,000 base + real profit-sharing bonuses averaging $12K–$22K extra last year) …so that you can earn what you're truly worth, live comfortably in one of the most beautiful places on earth, and never feel like you "took a pay cut" to escape the corporate grind.

These aren't just checkboxes. They're the difference between surviving PT and thriving in it—between going home drained and coming home with stories that make your family light up.
