Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) Jobs in Leesburg, FL — In-Home

Posted October 2, 2026 · PT Near Me · Contract / PRN / Part-time · Pay $60–70/hr

Leesburg sits at the center of the Lake County chain-of-lakes region along US-441 and SR-44, with crash referrals off the Turnpike and a dense 55+ population between Leesburg and The Villages edge. Most visits are crash-recovery cases billed through the patient's auto insurance, mixed with post-surgical work.

From a Leesburg base our PTAs typically reach Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, Tavares, Howey-in-the-Hills, and into Wildwood. Patient homes cluster tightly in the retirement communities, so a full day rarely means more than 25 minutes of total driving.
