Self-styled fitness expert 'Dr. Dave' convicted for bilking insurers with millions in bogus claims

A 54-year-old man who called himself "Dr. Dave" has been convicted of swindling health care insurers through millions in bogus claims.

David Roy Williams was convicted this week in federal court of four counts of health care fraud for falsely billing insurance companies.

Each count carries a 10-year sentence in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Williams is scheduled to be sentenced Aug. 27.

Despite his moniker, Williams is not a physician and his claims to insurers were bogus, according to the U.S. attorney's office.

Federal authorities said Williams billed insurers more than $25 million.
