A Dose of Deception featuring Dr. Brian Nguyen

Where medical precision meets magical illusion.

By day, Dr. Brian Nguyen heals with science. By night, he astonishes with sleight. A proud graduate of the University of Maryland School of Medicine, Dr. Nguyen bridges two worlds—merging the discipline of a physician with the artistry of a master magician.

Trained in the shadows by a legendary underground card expert, he’s perfected techniques so refined they’d make Erdnase himself blink twice. Every movement is surgical, every deception intentional. It’s not just magic—it’s method.

As seen on NBC News and celebrated in Genii Magazine, Dr. Nguyen delivers more than card tricks. He delivers astonishment, precision, and moments that make reality feel optional.

This is your prescription for wonder.
Experience A Dose of Deception—and prepare to believe in the impossible.
