Federal agents busted the “Rock Doc” Monday morning on Medicare-fraud charges related to physical therapy cases.
Christopher Gregory Wayne was arrested at his Miami Beach home by FBI and Health and Human Services agents.
His first appearance will be Monday afternoon in Miami federal court.
Wayne, who has sported punk-style hair spikes and leather bracelets, has been in the public eye before as a focus of a Wall Street Journal profile in December 2010. According to the profile, he has used his home as a Playboy production studio and has posed with celebs Paris Hilton and Steven Tyler.
He took in more than $1.2 million from Medicare in 2008, according to the profile, mainly using physical therapy that involves heat packs and electrical stimulation.
