All of these disputes (including the closed case) are currently listed as “pending.” The common thread through each of these claims is Foust’s recommendations of the client’s investments in Wimbledon Health Partners, LLC, and failing to disclose his own involvement with the firm, a conflict of interest. Payments promised were not made to clients, and total damages of these claims comes to $1,198483.34.

Wimbledon Health Partners, LLC, is a company based in Boca Raton, FL, that conducts in-office diagnostic testing for physicians. The company took out a $2 million credit line from Compass Bank on November 17, 2016, and was in default by December 1. Compass Bank filed suit on January 4, 2018, just two months after the loan.

On November 29, 2016, the company’s office was raided by the FBI. The company was under investigation for healthcare fraud, and according to a local TV station, agents removed boxes of documentation. Their website has been suspended.

Comments on employment sites Glassdoor and Indeed indicate that the company experienced high turnover, engaged in “shady practices” and was a hostile place to work.
