A Practice Built Around People

GSTG is fully family and clinician owned. Founder and CEO Noah Miller started the company in 2015 as its sole clinician. He still provides direct patient care, keeping a practical understanding of clinical work central to our growth.

Our team brings together occupational therapy, physical therapy, chiropractic, and acupuncture, with each discipline contributing distinct expertise. Your knowledge of movement and function, hands-on treatment approaches, and exercise progressions help shape that care.

When a patient’s care involves more than one discipline, share findings, discuss treatment and exercise strategies, and coordinate goals with GSTG colleagues. Bring your own clinical judgment and learn from the different perspectives around you. We value your voice in those conversations and the clinical insight you bring to injury recovery and a return to activity.

What You Will Do

• Evaluate patients with pain, injuries, and functional limitations across the body, assessing movement, strength, mobility, and endurance.
• Develop individualized plans that support injury recovery and a return to work, exercise, sports, and other meaningful activities.
• Deliver hands-on treatment, progressive therapeutic exercise, functional rehabilitation, and patient education.
• Monitor changes in pain, movement, and functional performance and progress treatment accordingly.
• Help patients understand their recovery and carry progress into the activities they want to resume.
• Contribute findings, treatment ideas, and exercise strategies to collaboration with involved GSTG clinicians.
• Maintain accurate documentation to support continuity of care.

What You Bring

• An active New Jersey occupational therapy license.
• Thoughtful clinical judgment and a focus on functional outcomes.
• Clear communication, reliability, and enthusiasm for collaborative care.
• Outpatient rehabilitation experience is helpful.

Apply with your resume, preferred locations, and availability. Bring your skills and your perspective, and help patients return to the parts of life that matter most.
