The Work That Changes a Life

Every once in a while, something shifts.

A patient who has been living carefully for months suddenly moves without guarding.

An athlete who thought their season was over returns with confidence.

A concussion patient who couldn’t tolerate light walks out steady and clear.

A person who had quietly accepted pain as permanent feels hope again.

That breakthrough moment is why we do this work.

Wayfinder was built for clinicians who care deeply about finding those breakthroughs.

We are a private outpatient physical therapy practice in South Burlington, Vermont, grounded in careful reasoning, human presence, and work that carries real consequence.

This is not transactional care.

It’s care with hospitality, heart, grit & grace.


 

A Place for Serious Clinicians

The clinicians who thrive here are not flashy.

They are thoughtful. Precise. Attentive. Comfortable with complexity.

We treat competitive athletes…

We reconcile complex vestibular and concussion cases…

We care for 3 generations inside one family…

We heal people who have not improved elsewhere.

The range keeps you sharp.

The standards keep you growing.

When you work here, your name becomes associated with care that changes outcomes.

That matters, in this community and within yourself.

What It’s Like to Work Here

One-on-One, High-Standards Practice

At Wayfinder, patients get your full attention in private treatment rooms. Our clinicians use thoughtful assessment, precise clinical reasoning, and personalized plans to get real results for people with a wide range of conditions. We are the top-rated practice because we heal patients that other clinics can not.

Clinical Autonomy

We trust our Doctors to practice at the top of their license. You are empowered to think critically, manage your caseload intentionally, and make care decisions that reflect your training and judgment.

Growth is Expected

We value curiosity, professionalism, compassion, and collaboration with peers. Whether through internal case discussions, specialty development, or contributing to broader practice strategy, growth is not an afterthought: it’s standard.

Sustainable Professional Practice

Work should be fulfilling, not exhausting. We protect schedule quality, value consistent performance, and build for long careers in physical therapy, not short bursts of burnout.

Who Thrives at Wayfinder

If you became a physical therapist because you believed this profession could change lives (not just manage symptoms), this environment will feel right.

If you want your work to carry weight in South Burlington and across Vermont’s healthcare community, this is where that reputation is built.
