I am aware that health care industry is the most promising industry these days and has good salary in professions as in physical therapy assistant . But how does the salary varies with experience and location of job ? If I graduate with a associate degree in this profession, what would be my starting salary and salary after 20 years ? Thanks in advance.

Yes , you are right . Health care is reccession free career . Though there ae professions that are not so promising like Mri technicina , ekg technician . When it comes to physical therapy assistant career , as much I know about this it has the highest number of jobs and salary prospects . The average starting salary is $40,000 . It keeps on increasing with skill and experience . After 20 years of experiecne , the salary would be close to $65,000 . But that's a guess of mine . You can these source get compelete details about physical therapy assistant (http://thephysicaltherapistassistant.com/) ,Physical Therapist Assistants and Aides : Occupational Outlook Handbook : U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (http://www.bls.gov/ooh/Healthcare/Physical-therapist-assistants-and-aides.htm)
