Acute Pediatric Physical Therapist

MLee Medical Employment

Little Steps, Big Impact - Come Join Our South Austin Team

There's something magical about helping kids take their first steps-sometimes literally. At our outpatient clinic in the heart of South Austin, we believe in meeting kids right where they are, turning therapy into play, and celebrating every single win, no matter how small.

We're looking for a Pediatric Physical Therapist who's not just skilled, but deeply compassionate. Someone who understands that progress isn't always linear, but with the right support, it always comes.

Here's a little about us:
Our team is tight-knit, collaborative, and endlessly supportive. We treat each other like family, and our patients like our own. From babies to teens, we work with a wide range of kiddos-each with their own goals and personalities-and we tailor our treatment plans to fit the whole child, not just the diagnosis.

What your days might look like:
  • One-on-one sessions with amazing kids (and their equally amazing families)
  • Collaborating with SLPs, OTs, and other PTs to create well-rounded care plans
  • Celebrating first steps, first jumps, and first high-fives
  • Keeping documentation up to date, but never letting it get in the way of patient care
What we're looking for:
  • Licensed Physical Therapist in Texas
  • Pediatric experience preferred (but if you've got a passion and solid clinical foundation, let's talk!)
  • Someone who loves working with families and can explain the "why" behind what we do
  • A playful spirit, a big heart, and a sense of humor
Why you'll love it here:
  • Full-Time or Part-Time opportunities available
  • Flexible scheduling and realistic productivity expectations
  • CEU support and mentorship if you're early in your career
  • A work culture that values kindness, curiosity, and laughter

If you're ready to help kids move, grow, and thrive-and have a little fun along the way-we'd love to meet you.

Apply today. Let's make progress together, one little step at a time.
