Our Story

Built by Therapists Who Understand Healthcare

Distinctive Therapy Services was founded in 1981 to help healthcare organizations meet the growing need for dependable rehabilitation professionals. More than four decades later, that purpose still drives our work.

As a physical therapist-owned company, we understand that an open therapy position affects more than a schedule. It can limit patient access, strain existing staff, delay referrals and slow growth. DTS works with healthcare leaders to provide flexible therapy staffing that fits their clinical and operational needs.

Today, we support organizations across home health, outpatient care, senior living, skilled nursing and ambulatory surgery settings with licensed physical, occupational and speech therapy professionals.

What Guides Us

Purpose

Every placement has a purpose: helping organizations maintain access to high-quality rehabilitation care.

Progress
