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. Both named physicians found in the Ministry of Health registry of practitioners holding a Letter of Credentialing and Privileging for aesthetic medical practice, matched on MMC numbers 47220 and 47200; the national specialist register returned no specialty entry for these names. [lcp] [nsr] [merits] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Named; role unclear. Physicians named with roles and qualifications on the doctors page; the page covers both branches and is not tied to this address. [site-doctors] |
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). Full registration numbers 47220 and 47200 in the MMC practitioner register with current annual practising certificates and this clinic and address declared as a place of practice; the same numbers appear in the Ministry of Health credentialing registry. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit not_published) — matched by name] [merits] [lcp] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Record found: name, address and status match. Ministry of Health register of licensed private medical clinics, record OBJECTID 334099: name, unit numbers, street, postcode and town match; licensed facility type records aesthetic services as an area of interest. [facility] |
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.

SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Partial, without issuers. The Ministry of Health advertising approval number is published in the site footer; no company, facility or physician numbers are published. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty One or two soft superlatives or non-absolute safety promises. The home page carries one market-position claim without an issuer. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 17 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |

Score ceilings
No ceiling applies. We never apply one on 'not found' alone.
Holds
No hold on this profile.
Inclusion policy
Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

|---|---|
| Provides the service itself (not an aggregator, booking site or tour packager) | verified yes [site] [facility] |
| In scope: the intervention is performed by a physician | verified yes [site] |
| Names a responsible physician | verified yes [site-doctors] [merits] |
Who is responsible

These cells score nothing and are not negative findings. A cell on a register that is closed to machine queries is left out of the coverage calculation; the others count against it. Each one names why it is empty; an attempt that did not complete is re-run in the next collection pass. If you can point to a public source, send it.
