Initial Dermatologist Consultation
At our dermatology clinic in London, each patient starts their treatment with a 20 to 30-minute initial consultation. Our consultant dermatologists will discuss your skin concerns, conduct a thorough examination, and develop a customised treatment plan. For an accurate diagnosis, additional tests such as blood tests, swabs, allergy tests, patch tests, and biopsies may be necessary. Many of these tests can be performed the same day, with results available shortly after. For instance, blood tests may return results within the day, while mycology swabs can take a few weeks.
Our dermatologists carefully review all test results prior to your follow-up visit. Our clinic features a modern treatment suite where we can perform biopsies on skin lesions like moles for pathological analysis. The samples are sent to our partner lab, where experienced pathologists examine them and generate a report for our dermatologists. We strive to begin your treatment during your first visit. The on-site pharmacy at our dermatology clinic in London allows you to purchase medications immediately, ensuring your treatment plan starts without delay. Additionally, we can perform procedures such as cryotherapy and the removal of cysts, moles, and skin tags on the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I make a booking?
We have recently set up an online booking system, making it easier than ever to book an appointment with one of our dermatologists in London. Simply click on the top right-hand tab and select a time and date that suits you, or call us directly at 0207 467 3720.
Can my GP refer me here?
Yes, your GP can refer you directly here, which may even reduce waiting times for you to see a consultant dermatologist. Once you are registered with us we will keep your GP surgery up to date with your progess by sending a letter to them after each visit you have with us.
Do you accept health insurance?
At our dermatology clinic, many patients receive treatment through their personal health insurance. If you are unsure about your coverage, please contact your insurer directly. Our team is here to help, offering assistance with communications to your insurer or providing necessary paperwork to facilitate the process.
Do you have wheelchair access?
We have parking spaces available outside our doors on the main road of Wimpole Street. We have a portable wheelchair ramp which can be set up in advance of your arrival. Please let our team know should you require wheelchair access for your appointment so we can arrange this for you.
Are evening and weekend appointments available?
Some of the skin doctors and nurses work in the evenings and on Saturdays. If this is a time that would suit you better please call our reception team who will be able to assist you further. Unfortunately we are closed on Sundays but do check as this may change occasionally.
Will you provide any personal medication should I need them?
The London Dermatology Centre houses its own pharmacy. Should you require any oral or topical medications we can supply these to you immediately. This is also useful when talking you through how to use them. It also means you can start your treatment before you leave this clinic.
What is your cancellation policy?
Our dermatology clinic is run by leading consultant dermatologists in London. Their time is valuable, so we ask that you please provide us with at least 24 hours' notice if you would like to cancel or reschedule your appointment. We require a £50 holding fee to secure your consultation. This fee can be applied towards the cost of your treatment should you choose to proceed. If you are late or fail to attend your appointment without notifying us, we may retain your fee. A typical consultation lasts approximately 30 minutes.
Can I choose which dermatologist to see?
You may book a consultation with any skin doctor or nurse at our dermatology clinic in London if you have a specific preference. However, if this is your first visit, we will recommend which doctor best suits your needs when booking your appointment, as many of our dermatology consultants specialise in specific skin conditions. They will be the best skin doctor to consult with. We also have both female and male doctors available, should your condition be of a sensitive nature.
