Mentorship that's actually structured
Six months of paid one-on-one mentorship. Two hours every week. Designed around your specific questions, cases, and growth areas. Not a shadow program. Not a once a month check in.
About the Role
This is a full-time outpatient physical therapist assistant position across our Las Cruces, Alamogordo, and El Paso clinics. You'll carry a manageable caseload, work with a collaborative team, and have dedicated time built into your schedule for mentorship and growth, not just patient visits.
We treat a wide range of orthopedic and sports conditions. If you come in with a specialty interest in sports performance, ACL rehab, neuro, balance, dry needling, or running assessment, we'll help you develop it. If you don't have one yet, we'll help you find it.
This is not a volume-first clinic. We protect the therapeutic relationship because we believe that's what produces outcomes, and outcomes are what we're here for.
What You Bring
- Associate degree from an accredited Physical Therapist Assistant program
- Active PTA license in New Mexico or Texas, or eligibility to obtain
- A genuine interest in outpatient orthopedics and/or sports rehab
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
- New graduates welcome. Our mentorship program is built for you
What the Role Looks Like
- Deliver patient care under the direction of a supervising Physical Therapist following established treatment plans
- Provide one-on-one care with appropriate use of support staff
- Maintain accurate, timely documentation within our EMR
- Communicate clearly with patients, families, and the supervising PT
- Progress patients intentionally toward functional, meaningful goals
- Collaborate with clinical directors and peers on complex cases
- Participate actively in mentorship, both as a mentee early on and as a mentor as you grow
- Contribute to clinic culture, not just fill a schedule
- Maintain licensure and pursue continuing education
- Bring what you learn back to the team
Why Back in Action Therapy
A caseload you can work with
We protect the therapeutic relationship by protecting your schedule. You'll see patients at a pace that lets you do your job well, not just fill slots.
Find your clinical lane
Sports performance. ACL rehab. Neuro. Balance. Ortho. And more. If you have a passion, we'll invest in it. If you're still figuring it out, we'll help you explore.
Independent and clinician-led
We're not hospital-owned, not a roll-up, and not answering to a corporate quota. We're owned and led by people who built this company around how care should actually feel.
Room to grow into leadership
Clinical Director. Program development. Operations. The path forward exists and we promote from within. We have a formal leadership track for clinicians who want it.
A team that has your back
Small enough that everyone knows everyone. Large enough to offer real resources. You'll have colleagues you actually want to work with and leadership that's genuinely accessible.

- 401(k) with 3% match
