PER DIEM PHYSICAL THERAPIST (W-2)

San Diego Mobile Rehab & Physical Therapy | San Diego, CA | Per Diem | W-2 Employee

SD Mobile Rehab is a concierge, private-pay mobile physical therapy practice based in San Diego. We bring evidence-based, one-on-one care directly to our clients in their home, home gym, corporate fitness facility, or community setting.

The practice is founded and led by Dr. Rockie Felder, PT, DPT. We incorporate a select set of advanced clinical tools including the FDA-cleared Neubie neuromuscular electrical stimulation device, to deliver outcomes that standard outpatient settings often cannot match.

Per diem clinicians begin with a caseload focused on general orthopedic and functional rehabilitation. Access to specialized technology, including the Neubie, is introduced as the clinical relationship develops and caseload grows.

We are growing and looking for the right clinician to join us in serving clients across coastal and central San Diego County.

This is a per diem, W-2 employee position for a licensed physical therapist who wants to do meaningful clinical work without the constraints of a traditional clinic environment.

You will receive client referrals as they come in through SD Mobile Rehab's marketing, referral network, and inbound inquiries. Caseload volume will grow organically as the practice expands. Our scheduling, documentation, and clinical support infrastructure is already in place so you can focus on clinical care from day one.

This is not a position where you inherit someone else's patients. You will be building your own book of clients within an established brand, systems, and referral network.

You will serve clients across coastal and central San Diego County, including:

North County Coastal: Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, Encinitas, Leucadia, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Solana Beach, Del Mar

Central San Diego: La Jolla, Pacific Beach, Bay Ho, Linda Vista, Mission Valley, Mission Beach, Ocean Beach, Point Loma, Coronado

Inland/Adjacent: La Mesa

Territory may expand to additional San Diego County locations as caseload develops. Client assignments will be organized to minimize drive time where possible.
