The Skin & Bones mission

We are Dr Josh Lauder and Dr Bo Okafor of Skin & Bones. After working a collective 20 years in the NHS, we set out to create a new patient centered clinic, focusing on rapid diagnosis and treatment using state of the art imaging techniques.

We have created a clinic we can proudly recommend to family and friends. Book with us today for highly specialised, personalised care.

Dermoscopy diagnostics and skin surgery 

Using dermoscopy, we provide in-depth skin assessments to detect issues such as skin cancer, abnormal moles, and more. Our specialized approach helps in early detection and preventative care, offering you peace of mind.
