College Student Internship Program
STAR Physical Therapy seeks to serve individuals who intend to become members of the PT/OT profession by offering a formal college internship program for current undergraduate students. College undergraduate students who are seriously considering applying to Physical Therapy school can now apply to STAR Physical Therapy to complete a valuable internship at one of our outpatient physical therapy clinics.
