Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 13, 2011, U. S. Physical Therapy, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that its Chief Financial Officer, Larry McAfee, will present at the Oppenheimer 22nd Annual Healthcare Conference on Wednesday, December 14, 2011 at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York.

A copy of the updated presentation is posted on the Company’s website, www.usph.com.

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