Physiotherapist – MSK & Hands-On Therapy
Balance Physio GC | Mermaid Beach, Gold Coast | Full-Time or Part-Time
The Opportunity
Are you a Physiotherapist who enjoys actually treating patients, not simply giving them an exercise program and sending them on their way?
Balance Physio GC is looking for a Physiotherapist to join our growing Mermaid Beach clinic.
We believe excellent physiotherapy combines strong clinical reasoning, hands-on treatment, patient education and exercise rehabilitation.
Our patients come to us because they want a clinician who will take the time to assess what is happening, provide genuine treatment and develop a explicit plan to help them improve.
If you enjoy manual therapy, solving different presentations and building robust relationships with your patients, we would love to hear from you.
