A Smarter Way Forward in Physical Therapy

At Arete, growth isn’t just about numbers — it’s about people. We partner with practice owners, clinicians, and leaders to build thriving therapy practices where culture, outcomes, and excellence come first.

We don’t buy clinics. We build legacies.

Founded by clinicians, we believe great care and great business should fuel one another. Our model helps owners scale without losing the heart of what makes their practice unique — empowering clinicians, protecting culture, and building a future that lasts.

Acquisitions with Integrity

Transition doesn’t have to mean trade-offs. We offer flexible, respectful paths that secure your future while protecting what matters most: people, culture, and care. Your legacy grows, without compromise.

Strategic De Novo Growth

For entrepreneurial clinicians ready to lead, we co-invest in launching new clinics. Together, we combine your vision with our resources, infrastructure, and strategy to create sustainable practices that thrive.

Bikers Going Downhill

Equity + Ownership

Ownership at Arete is earned, supported, and built for the long term. From the clinic floor to the boardroom, we invest with purpose and align equity with real value, not vanity titles.

Why We Exist

Protecting What’s Special. Building What’s Next.

Too many PT practices get swallowed by rollups that erase what made them great. We created Arete to do the opposite — safeguarding what makes private practice meaningful while equipping it to grow with strength, equity, and purpose.

Not Your Typical Rollup

Clinician-Led, Always

Founded by people who’ve lived in the clinic—not just the boardroom.

Technology That Frees You

Smart systems that reduce admin so you can focus on patients.

Growth With Integrity

Strategy and data that prioritize outcomes and people first.

Relentless Clinical Excellence

Mentorship and pathways that fuel continuous improvement.

This Is Business as Unusual

“We believe pressure is a privilege. We lead by serving. We choose partners with humility and open minds—not ego.”

- Eric DeYoung
