About Gold Coast

Built by Therapists, for Therapists

Gold Coast Healthcare Staffing is owned and run by practicing physical therapists, placing clinicians in travel and permanent roles across all 50 states. It was founded to fix what therapists dislike about traditional staffing agencies: impersonal recruiters, no clinical support, and pay structures that put the company ahead of the clinician.

What makes Gold Coast different

  • Therapist-owned, led by a practicing PT, DPT
  • Free 1:1 mentorship from licensed clinicians
  • All six disciplines: PT, PTA, OT, COTA, SLP, RT
  • Travel and permanent placement, nationwide
  • Transparent, above-market pay

Our Story

An Agency a Therapist Would Actually Want to Work With

Gold Coast was founded by Alyssa DiMartino, PT, DPT, a practicing physical therapist who traveled herself and saw the gap firsthand: agencies that treated clinicians like line items, staffed by recruiters who had never set foot in a skilled nursing facility or read an LTAC note.

So she built the agency she wished existed, one where the person guiding your career is a clinician, where mentorship is free and standard rather than a marketing line, and where the pay math is transparent because there is no bloated corporate overhead to feed.

That is still how Gold Coast runs today: therapist-owned, clinician-led, and built so a new grad's first contract and a veteran's twentieth both start with someone who has been there.

What We Believe

Clinicians Supporting Clinicians

Gold Coast is not trying to be the biggest staffing agency. It is trying to be the one therapists trust, and it earns that the same way every day.

Therapist-Owned

The people making decisions are practicing clinicians who understand productivity expectations, documentation, and what a first SNF assignment really feels like.

Mentorship, Free and Standard

Every placement is paired with a licensed clinical mentor matched to your setting, at no cost.

Transparent Pay

Above-market rates with clear weekly breakdowns before you accept anything. Lean overhead means more of the bill rate reaches the clinician.

Every Discipline

PT, PTA, OT, COTA, SLP, and RT, in travel and permanent roles, in every major clinical setting, across all 50 states.

The People

Licensed Clinicians in Your Corner

Gold Coast's mentors are practicing and experienced physical and occupational therapists, each matched to travelers by clinical setting, from LTAC and skilled nursing to acute care, home health, and pediatrics.

They prepare you before day one and stay available through the whole assignment. It is the clearest proof of what therapist-owned actually means.
