Physical Therapist – Join a Mission-Driven Orthopedic Team

About Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine

Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is a leading provider of comprehensive orthopedic care in Chicago and its surrounding suburbs. We are committed to delivering compassionate, patient-centered care that restores function, reduces pain, and improves the quality of life for every individual we serve. Our expert team of physicians, physical therapists, and support staff works collaboratively to provide personalized treatment plans using the latest advancements in orthopedic medicine and technology.

What truly sets Genesis Ortho apart is our dedication to accessibility: we proudly accept all insurance plans—including Illinois Medicaid—and care for uninsured patients, ensuring individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds can access the care they need. This commitment, along with our integrated approach to care and exceptional team communication, makes Genesis Ortho a uniquely rewarding place to work.

About the Role

We are seeking a motivated and skilled Physical Therapist to join our growing team. This role is integral to our mission of delivering exceptional orthopedic care and helping patients return to doing what they love. You’ll work with a diverse patient population, primarily ranging from young adults to individuals in their 60s and 70s, including those who may qualify for Medicaid but lack access to employer-sponsored healthcare. While we also serve children (9+) and older adults, these populations are seen less frequently.

You’ll play a central role in providing evidence-based, individualized care—empowering patients in their recovery while collaborating closely with our multidisciplinary team.

Key Responsibilities

  • Conduct thorough patient evaluations, including goniometry, manual muscle testing, and functional assessments.
  • Develop and implement personalized treatment plans aligned with patient goals and referring physician recommendations.
  • Utilize a wide range of interventions—including therapeutic exercise, manual therapy (e.g., Graston, Dry Needling, MDT, Mulligan techniques), and modalities to improve outcomes.
  • Educate patients about their condition, home exercise program, and injury prevention strategies to promote long-term success.
  • Document patient progress in Epic Hyperspace, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and timely updates.
  • Collaborate with physicians, PTAs, OTs, and other team members to ensure coordinated, patient-centered care.
  • Supervise and mentor PTAs (1:1 ratio), ensuring effective delegation and continuity of care.
  • Stay current with advancements in physical therapy through continuing education and professional development.
  • Contribute to our department’s growth and innovation, including upcoming services like Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) therapy.

What We Offer – Our Culture and Commitment

At Genesis Ortho, you’ll find a supportive, fast-paced environment where every team member is valued. We believe in:

  • Team-based care: Strong collaboration across departments ensures seamless treatment and better outcomes.
  • Growth & mentorship: From day one, you’ll benefit from structured onboarding, shadowing opportunities, and ongoing mentorship from experienced PTs.
  • Career advancement: With our continued expansion, you’ll have opportunities to take on leadership roles at new or existing clinics.
  • Positive workplace culture: Regular team meetings, company events, and open communication are part of how we work.

Qualifications

Required:

  • Valid Physical Therapist license in the State of Illinois
  • Graduate of an accredited Physical Therapy program (DPT preferred)

Preferred:

  • Recent graduates are encouraged to apply.
  • Board certification in Orthopedics or Sports Medicine
  • Experience with post-surgical patients and/or athletes
  • Familiarity with Epic Hyperspace EMR
  • Strong manual therapy skills (Graston, Dry Needling, MDT, Mulligan techniques)

Compensation & Benefits

Genesis Ortho offers a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, including:

  • Base salary aligned with Chicago market rates, plus performance-based bonus opportunities
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Continuing education allowance
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Disability and life insurance
  • Flexible scheduling and paid time off
  • License and CEU reimbursement
  • Professional development and advancement opportunities

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
