Job Description
Summer Opportunity with School-Year Potential
If you’re serious about a future in physical therapy, this is a chance to get inside a high-performing PT clinic and learn how it actually runs.
FYZICAL Bedford is a fast-growing clinic with scores of 5-star reviews and plans for continued growth, including a potential second location. This internship is designed for students who want exposure not only to patient care—but also to the business, operations, marketing, and patient experience side of physical therapy.
You’ll work closely with the clinic owner and clinical director, contributing to real work across the clinic and gaining exposure to decisions that shape patient experience, growth, and clinic operations.
This is not a shadowing role. You’ll contribute, take ownership, and learn.
