Dear Dr. Amanda Davis,
I am writing to express my interest in the Physical Therapist position at Rehabilitation Center. With a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree and 4 years of experience in outpatient and inpatient settings, I am passionate about helping patients achieve their rehabilitation goals.
In my current role at Sports Medicine Clinic, I develop and implement individualized treatment plans for patients with orthopedic and sports-related injuries. I am skilled in manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and patient education. I have successfully helped over 200 patients return to their pre-injury activity levels, with an average recovery time reduction of 15%.
I am particularly drawn to Rehabilitation Center's comprehensive approach to patient care and your commitment to evidence-based practice. I would welcome the opportunity to bring my clinical expertise and compassionate approach to your rehabilitation team.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to Rehabilitation Center's mission of restoring function and improving quality of life for patients.
Sincerely,
Michael Brown
