It really doesn’t change. The average salary for someone with a DPT is the same as someone with an entry level MS. The way most facilities hire, there is no separate job class for someone with the DPT. Rather, your salary will increase with experience and any specialty certifications you hold. If you hold a board certified specialty or have extensive continuing education in a particular area of PT that is in need, this will be more likely to influence your salary. These are things you typically persue after you’ve had at least a couple years experience.
