Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

     U. S. Physical Therapy, Inc. (the "Company") will deliver a presentation on
Tuesday, January 22, 2008 at the Fifth Annual Palm Beach Emerging Growth
Institutional Investor Forum being held in West Palm Beach, Florida. Chris
Reading, Chief Executive Officer, and Lawrance McAfee, Chief Financial Officer,
will address the conference.

     A copy of the presentation may be accessed on the Company's website,
www.usph.com.

     The investor presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures as
defined under Regulation G of the rules and regulations of the SEC. The non-GAAP
financial measures contained in the presentation include a presentation of
EBITDAEC. EBITDAEC equals net income before interest, taxes, amortization and
depreciation and equity compensation expense. See the addendum included in the
presentation for a reconciliation of net income to EBITDAEC. Management believes
providing this non-GAAP financial information to investors is useful information
for comparing the Company's period-to-period results.

     Pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
information contained in this report shall not be deemed to be "filed" for the
purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
will not be incorporated by reference into any filings by the Company under such
Act or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
