| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. |
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 on individual profile pages; the address is published in the site header. [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: full registration number 28632, annual practising certificate 2027 no. 45202 and 2026 no. 48921, principal place of practice Nathan Skin Hair & Laser Centre Sdn Bhd, Menara UOA Bangsar, 5 Jalan Bangsar Utama 1, 59000. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit not_published) — matched by name] [merits] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Found with a spelling discrepancy; or the location is registered under the name of the host facility at the same address (a practice inside a hospital or a centre); or the value comes from a mirror or from a directory that shows no status — the profile names the record holder verbatim. Ministry of Health private-clinic register: OBJECTID 343655, address matches and the facility is licensed as a dermatology specialist clinic with aesthetic services; the licensed name reads "NATHAN SKIN CLINIC (A12023)" against the trading name used on the site. [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://www.nshlc.com.my/, https://www.nshlc.com.my/contact.html. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. Qualifications and memberships are listed without registration numbers. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. No wording from the superlative or guarantee lexicon found on the site. [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. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-20 |

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.
