The skin cancer screening and mole removal clinic
The MOLE Clinic™ is the UK's leading independent skin cancer screening & diagnostic centre based in the centre of London.
Skin cancer is often caused by too much sun or sun bed use. It starts as a mole or freckle. Caught early, it is easily treated. Early detection saves lives, so annual mole checks by the experts makes sense.
Since launch in 2003, we have screened around 100,000 people and detected an estimated 1000 melanomas – almost all of which are early and therefore easily treated.
We are regulated by the Care Quality Commission and meet all quality and safety standards. We work with major insurers, hold NHS Business Partner status and have been awarded the MacMillan's Quality Environment Mark.
Our mission is to help lower the UK skin cancer mortality rate by detecting skin cancers early. We achieve this by developing innovative, highest quality screening services and making those services widely, available and easily accessible, by the UK public and NHS GPs.
We are succeeding in our mission by helping 40,000 private and NHS patients every year and by regularly detecting numerous life-threatening skin cancers - almost all of which are detected early and are therefore easily treated.
