Build Your Future at Foothills Physical Therapy Group
At Foothills Physical Therapy Group, we believe that professional fulfillment comes from doing what you love in an environment that puts people first.
Our founder, Ryan Dulling, established this practice to push back against the “mill” culture that has drained the passion from so many talented providers.
We believe that physical therapy should feel personal and focused, which is why we have created a space where your clinical expertise is celebrated and your voice is heard.
If you are looking for a career in physical therapy in Knoxville, TN where you can truly invest in your patients and your own growth, you have found the right home. We treat people, not just conditions, and that philosophy extends to how we support and build up our team members.





Why Your Career Looks Different Here
We intentionally bridge the gap between high-volume corporate clinics and inaccessible cash-based models. This means you get the best of both worlds: the uninterrupted, one-on-one time with patients that makes your work meaningful, and a stable, therapist-owned environment that respects your professional boundaries. We value relationships over quotas and quality over convenience.
At Foothills Physical Therapy Group, you are empowered to view the body as an integrated system, allowing you to use your full clinical toolkit to help individuals not just exist, but truly thrive.




Clinician Opportunities
Restore the Heart of Care
Our physical therapists are the frontline of our mission to restore patient-centered care. In this role, you are not a cog in a productivity machine; you are a clinical expert who manages an individualized, evidence-based plan for every person you see. Because we prioritize one-on-one time, you have the space to perform detailed movement assessments and provide the manual techniques and movement retraining that lead to unparalleled results. We are looking for passionate, results-oriented providers who want to build long-term resilience in their patients while working in a supportive, high-energy culture.
Clinical Support and Coordination
The Pulse of the Office
A seamless patient experience starts the moment someone connects with us. Our clinical support and administrative team members are vital partners in bridging the gap between quality care and accessibility. In these roles, you help our patients navigate their insurance benefits with transparency and integrity, ensuring that affordability never stands in the way of excellence. You are the welcoming face and the organized mind that keeps our energizing environment running smoothly. If you love building relationships and helping a community feel seen and supported, your skills will flourish here.
Growth, Innovation, & Mentorship
We are proud of the outcomes we achieve, but we are even more proud of the growth we foster within our own walls. At Foothills Physical Therapy Group, innovation is part of our daily rhythm. We encourage our team to stay at the leading edge of the field through consistent learning and collaborative teamwork.
Whether you are a seasoned veteran or a new graduate, you will find a place where your progress is celebrated and where mentorship is built on trust and consistency. We invest in you because we know that when our team feels cared for, our patients receive the best care imaginable.
Our “We Love, We Build, We Work” Culture
Just as important as our clinical approach is the culture we live every day. We have created a space that is welcoming, supportive, and truly energizing for both patients and staff. We lead with authenticity, showing up as our real selves so we can build genuine connections with everyone who walks through our doors.
We are a results-oriented family that takes great pride in our work, and we are looking for like-minded people who believe that a passionate, big-hearted attitude is just as important as technical skill.
Living Our Values in Your Daily Work
Integrity Over Quotas
We make clinical decisions based on what is right for the person, not what hits a productivity metric.
Authentic Relationships
We celebrate the fact that many of our patients come to us through word of mouth because of the trust we build.
Holistic Excellence
We treat the human body as an integrated system and our team as an integrated family.
