Physical Therapy Gap Year Program

Who should apply

Graduated students (spring graduates) interested in a medical/healthcare field are encouraged to apply. This opportunity is ideal for students planning a career as a physical therapist, physical therapy assistant, or physical therapist technician who plan a “gap year” before matriculation to professional school.

At Genesis, our goal is simple: free our patients to be more active, more athletic, and to move freely in their bodies – accessible to everyone, not just the select few with the right commercial insurance.

To accomplish this mission, we've reinvented the care delivery model, discovering a blueprint for delivering high‑quality care while making the prices more ethical and affordable. We report that 75% of our patient base is Medicaid‑eligible, and we were recently included on the 2021 Inc. 5000 list.

Please submit a resume and brief letter that highlights your qualifications and interest in the position. Remember to include any and all volunteer and prior internship experience.

Interns will gain comprehensive education and experience in all aspects of clinical operations and workflow, including patient education, rooming patients, learning billing procedures, and various administrative responsibilities. Opportunities will also be provided to shadow procedures and receive mentoring by the Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine physical therapy team.

This is a full‑time, one‑ or two‑year, paid position. Some part‑time applicants with potential for transition to full‑time may be accepted on a case‑by‑case basis.
