That leads to frustration and burnout. At Tristar Physical Therapy, we believe PTAs should be able to focus on what matters most: delivering great care and helping patients get real results. Thats why we provide a supportive environment, a manageable caseload, and a culture built around outcomesnot chaos. Hi, Im Jordan Black, PT, DPT , owner of Tristar Physical Therapy. I want to share a quick piece of our backstory. Like you, Ive always been passionate about helping people move better and live without pain. But years ago, after dealing with my own injuries, I experienced rehab that felt impersonallike I was just another number. There wasnt strong accountability, and it didnt feel like the care was truly results-driven. Looking back, I believe many clinicians were simply stretched too thin to deliver the level of care they wanted to provide. That experience stuck with meand it pushed me to build something different. I started Tristar with one goal: deliver real rehab with real people , built on individualized care, education, and best-in-class outcomes. Since opening, weve grown quickly across East Tennessee, built an incredible team, and we consistently hear from patients that we are their solution. Now, were hiring a full-time Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) to join our team. Weve helped tens of thousands of local residents, but well never value volume more than patient satisfaction and staff retention . Were looking for someone who is passionate, outgoing, and committed to excellent clinical care in an outpatient orthopedic setting. New grads are welcome to apply. What we offer: Mentorship: You are not aloneour team works together so you can grow and thrive. Competitive Pay Bonus Structure: We want you supported and paid fairly to prevent burnout. Advancement Opportunities: Growth paths exist for team members who help expand the business and improve our clinical product. Benefits Package: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401(k), Accrued PTO, CEU reimbursement, Holiday Pay If this sounds like the right fit, submit your application and well set up a call or time to meet. I look forward to hearing from you, Jordan Black, PT, DPT
