Jerónimo López Ramírez (born 1972), known as Dr. Lakra, is a Mexican artist and tattooist based in Oaxaca. Apart from tattooing, his art involves embellishing found images and objects—for instance, dolls, old medical illustrations, and pictures in 1950s Mexican magazines—with macabre or tattoo-style designs. He is the son of the artist Francisco Toledo.
