Hey guys/gals,
Is anybody on here a physical therapist? Doing some research for my wife and trying to get an idea if a couple of things:
How hard is it to find a physical therapist job?
What are working condititions for PT's like in Saudi Arabia?
Average salary (or a rough guess) for a female PT?
and last but not least: What is required for a woman to find/get
a PT job?
My wife has over 12 years experience in the United States for background info.
Thanks in advance
Is anybody on here a physical therapist from the United States?

The salary of a Physiotherapist here or in Saudi varies with the experience and place of work. Salary could range from 20, 000 Dirhams or Riyals (1$=3.68 AED/SR) as a start but overseas employment are quite common.
Saudi has a stricter way of living. If you have lived all your life in US then I suggest you try UAE first. It is less stringent on religious attributes.
Apply online, there are numerous sites and agencies that searches for PT's female especially.
Hope this helped.
