Phony doctor accused of preying on vulnerable patients



An investigation by the FBI, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and the District Attorney's Office led to his arrest.

Donsbach was booked into jail in lieu of $1.5 million bail and was scheduled to be arraigned today.

Dumanis said Donsbach is not licensed as a physician, chiropractor or naturopathic doctor.

He advised one patient to inject herself with “neuropeptides” to treat arthritis, officials said. The woman, who is not from San Diego County, was told the injections would “reprogram” her body's T-cells. FDA tests revealed that the drug contains a steroid that was not disclosed on the packaging, officials said.

The patient spent thousands of dollars for the drugs and injected herself for six years, which led to severe bone-density loss, officials said.

Donsbach also claimed to have treated pancreatic cancer successfully about 60 percent of the time with a supplement he gave to a patient who also lives outside the county.
