Practice at the Top of Your Game – Become a Managing Partner

What is a Managing Partner?

At Bay State Physical Therapy, one of the foundations of our success is a unique Managing Partner model that’s all about teamwork, shared rewards, and delivering quality care.

Our Managing Partner model represents an opportunity to share in the success of the clinic you lead and build deep relationships with the communities you serve. As a Managing Partner, you have an ownership stake in the clinic (or clinics) that you directly lead, while benefiting from the structure and resources that Bay State Physical Therapy provides.

If you’re passionate about providing high quality care, love building a team, and want to build a community-based practice with best-in-class resources, the Managing Partner model provides a tremendous opportunity.

Who Becomes a Managing Partner?

Our Managing Partners are a diverse group of high performing physical therapists. Yet they all share some of the same characteristics:

High potential for personal growth and development
Entrepreneurial drive
Interest in managing their own clinic
Or simply frustrated by hitting a glass ceiling in their own organization and feeling stuck in their careers

Bay State Physical Therapy has truly been my home away from home since the start of my career. Climbing the ladder from new graduate, to lead PT, to Clinic Manager, and ultimately reaching my goal of becoming Managing Partner and opening a PT practice, is something I’ve always dreamed of.

Now, as a busy mom of two, Bay State Physical Therapy’s practice model and leadership team provide the support that allows me to have the work life balance that is integral to keeping the love for physical therapy in all that I do each day

Salena L., PT, DPT

Bay State Physical Therapy has given me the opportunity to grow at every stage of my career. I started here as a staff physical therapist in 2015 and have grown into a Managing Partner through strong mentorship, leadership development, and ongoing support. From learning how to provide excellent patient care to developing confidence as a leader, I’ve always felt encouraged to grow. Our team is open-minded, collaborative, and deeply committed to our patients and community. We prioritize access to care, compassion, and connection – whether that’s through mentoring new clinicians, supporting one another, or giving back through community programs. It’s a place where you’re supported, challenged, and truly proud of the work you do.

Thomas R., PT, DPT

Bay State Physical Therapy offered a clear path for growth and a culture that truly feels like family. I started with the company as a rehab aide before becoming a physical therapist, which gave me a firsthand look at how supportive and well-structured the organization is. The career path and mentorship programs are clearly laid out, making it easy to grow either clinically or into leadership. What stands out most, though, is the people. Our clinic truly feels like a family, and that makes coming to work enjoyable every day. Beyond delivering great patient care, Bay State is committed to advancing the physical therapy profession and improving access to care, which makes the work even more meaningful.

Ben R., PT, DPT

The Managing Partner model gives you the autonomy to build something meaningful while being fully supported. When I joined Bay State Physical Therapy in 2020, we were just coming out of the pandemic and working in a small space. Five years later, we’ve grown into multiple clinics across Cambridge and Somerville, supported by a leadership team that allows partners to stay autonomous while creating a unique identity for each clinic. What drives me most is seeing clinicians grow – especially new PT graduates who come in with little exposure to our model and quickly excel through structured education, mentorship, and a clear career path. Being able to support our team and help them achieve excellence is what makes this role so rewarding.

Hetal B., PT, DPT

Bay State Physical Therapy has supported my growth both clinically and personally. I was drawn to Bay State PT for the strong mentorship and continuing education opportunities, and that support has allowed me to grow in meaningful ways throughout my career. From earning certifications in dry needling and pelvic health to advancing into a clinic management role, I’ve always felt encouraged to pursue my interests and professional goals. What stands out most is the shared commitment to patient-first care and the belief in physical therapy as a primary entry point for musculoskeletal health. Paired with a clinic culture of aligned values and supportive teammates, it’s been a truly rewarding journey.

Tom M., PT, DPT

Bay State Physical Therapy gave me a clear path to grow while still feeling like a close-knit, locally rooted clinic. I started as a staff physical therapist and was able to progress through a clearly mapped career path into a lead therapist role within a few years. The continuing education opportunities – especially dry needling – have been a huge part of my growth and have made a real impact on patient care. What I love most is that each clinic feels like a small, family-style practice, while still having access to incredible resources and support. We’re encouraged to build our own clinic culture and truly connect with the community we serve, which makes the work both meaningful and rewarding.
