Time to first offer
“I stopped guessing what my take-home would be. With Luvo, I saw the full breakdown — hourly, stipends, travel reimbursement — before I even applied.”
Starting out
Marcus spent five years in a hospital-based outpatient clinic in Atlanta before he started thinking about travel. The work was steady, but the pay hadn't moved in three years, and he wanted to see how other facilities ran their PT departments.
Making the switch
His first agency placed him quickly but the pay package was confusing — he couldn't tell what was taxable and what wasn't until his first check arrived short. He finished that contract and started looking for something more transparent.
Finding Luvo
A colleague in his travel PT Facebook group mentioned Luvo. Marcus signed up on a Sunday night and had a recruiter call by Monday morning. The first thing she did was walk him through exactly how the pay breakdown worked — no surprises, no fine print.
On assignment
He's currently at an outpatient orthopedic clinic in Dallas, treating post-surgical patients and athletes. The facility matched what his recruiter described, and his weekly pay has been exactly what was quoted. He's already lined up his next contract through Luvo for a sports rehab clinic in Austin.
