Dr Richard Rawlins

Richard integrates his experience as a surgeon with intuition as a magician to explore and expose systems of medicine beyond quotidian comprehension.

He qualified from the University of London in 1968, was a lecturer at London's King's College, served as a ship's surgeon to P&O and the Royal Navy and remains an Honorary Consultant Surgeon at Bedford Hospital.

Richard has a private and medico-legal practice based in Torquay.

He is a member of the Magic Circle and was Riviera Circle of Magicians Mentalist of the Year in 20012.

He was awarded the Royal Society of Medicine's Presidents Prize for an essay, 'Trust me, I'm a doctor' in 2016. Magicians can be trusted - to fool you!
