Orthopedic Specialties is a small, independent orthotics practice in Rochelle Park. We've been fitting braces for Bergen County patients since 1988, and every fitting is done in person by a certified orthotist — the same one the patient sees at every visit. The work is hands-on, the pace is humane, and patients come back for decades.
We're looking for a part-time orthotist to see patients alongside our head Orthotist, with a particular focus on scoliosis bracing — including the Providence Nocturnal Scoliosis® System. That caseload has room to grow, and we want someone who'd like to grow with it.
What you'd do
- Evaluate patients, take measurements and casts, and fit and adjust custom orthoses
- Fit nighttime scoliosis braces (Providence) for adolescents, alongside spinal, lower-limb, and upper-limb work from our general caseload
- Handle follow-ups and adjustments, and document your clinical work
- See patients mostly in our ABC-accredited Rochelle Park office, with occasional home and facility visits
What we're looking for
- ABC-certified orthotist (CO or CPO); board-eligible candidates will be considered
- New Jersey orthotist license, or eligibility for licensure
- Experience fitting the Providence Nocturnal Scoliosis® System — or the willingness to learn it. If you haven't taken Spinal Technology's Providence training, we'll set it up at no cost to you — a short course, webinar or in-person, that carries ABC-approved CEUs.
- At ease with adolescents and their parents as well as older patients
- Motivated to keep a full schedule — and if you enjoy getting to know referring orthopedists, pediatricians, and physical therapists, so much the better
Schedule and pay
- Part-time and flexible: hours are built around scheduled fittings, and we'll set the days with you. A good fit whether you're an experienced orthotist easing back from full-time work or a newer practitioner adding scoliosis experience.
- Compensation based on experience and caseload — we'll discuss it in the interview
