Axis by axis
rubric value 1–5 · ? could not verify (no points, not a negative finding) · — not applicable: this country has no register of that class · OFF official register · SEC secondary source
| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found in the register with a current status; the register does not disclose the specialty, or discloses a different one (including “no specialisation”), and the clinic claims no protected title. The register's own line is shown on the profile. |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Physicians named with role and assigned per clinic location; the Bangsar address is published on the contact page. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). MeRITS practitioner record matched by declared place of practice and medical school rather than by a number published by the clinic: full registration number 39900, annual practising certificate 2026 no. 50386, place of practice Anna Hoo Clinic, Menara BRDB, 285 Jalan Maarof, 59000. [merits] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Record found: name, address and status match. Ministry of Health private-clinic register: OBJECTID 342838, "KLINIK ANNA HOO", name and address match. [ckaps] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability Only a brand, without a legal form and without a responsible person. Whatever we find ourselves is shown on the profile as a fact and does not raise this cell. No legal entity is named anywhere on the clinic's own pages: the site carries the trading name only. Pages loaded on 2026-09-20: https://annahooclinic.com.my/, https://annahooclinic.com.my/about-us/, https://annahooclinic.com.my/contact-us/. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. Credential statements name the issuing ministry but publish no registration numbers. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty Systematic superlatives; systematic safety promises without an absolute; absolutes about the past (success rates, “no infection since …”, satisfaction figures, “we guarantee your satisfaction”); comparisons with surgery. Superlative claims without a named issuer recur on the about page and on physician profiles. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency All load-bearing fields agree. Mechanical comparison of 3 language fronts (en, ms, zh) on 2026-09-17: every matched physician name, phone number and published number appears on every front. [fronts] |
SEC | 5 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M9 | Patient documents One. One document class found (a treatment downtime and aftercare guide); no consent document, risk page, revision policy or complaint route found. [site] |
