About the Company

US Physical Therapy

Runs outpatient physical and occupational clinics.

U.S. Physical Therapy runs hundreds of outpatient physical and occupational therapy clinics in over 41 states, providing acute, post-operative, and preventative care for orthopedic and neurologic issues, including sports and work injuries. Patients receive therapy from licensed therapists at clinics that are operated by local owner-partners who share in the profits, with growth coming from opening new clinics and buying into existing practices. The company differs from purely corporate-owned networks by using a local-ownership model combined with acquisitions to scale while keeping local leadership in each location. Its goal is to widen access to outpatient rehabilitation through a large, locally led network that helps patients recover and return to work or sports.
