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 Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries. Last attempt: plasticsurgery_ie, 18 September 2026 — IAPS member list does not name this clinic’s responsible physician, so no secondary finding is carried. ISAPS find-a-surgeon for Ireland answers HTTP 200 with a client-rendered shell (no surgeon rows in the HTML) and is left to the operator’s browser pass. |
? | ? | 26 | 2026-09-18 |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Surname or initials without a full name; or the name is available to a patient only in the official register, not on the clinic's own surface. The site names only ‘Dr. Mohamed’, with no surname, qualification or registration information published. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries. Last attempt: ftp_notices, 18 September 2026 — No publication notice names this clinic’s physicians, so the one openly readable source of an Irish registration number (“Reg No.…” in a notice) returns nothing for them, and the clinic publishes no IMC number of its own. The register search was re-probed on 2026-09-18 (GET + the documented WebForms POST, surname echoed back) and still renders “You must answer the reCAPTCHA” with zero rows. |
? | ? | 8 | 2026-09-18 |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Queried, no match. Last attempt: facility_registry, 18 September 2026 — Every leg run: 0 rows for the centre name, 0 rows for the street address, and the clinic is not among the 27 Healthcare centres HIQA lists for Cork. HIQA registers designated centres, monitors HSE-funded services and private hospitals and regulates medical ionising radiation; Ireland has no licence class for a cosmetic or aesthetic clinic, so the absence carries no finding about this clinic. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-18 |
| 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. Scan of the clinic’s own pages (home page and contact page) finds no legal entity named: the site trades under its brand and publishes neither a company name with a legal form nor a CRO number. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. committed to the highest standards in cosmetic & aesthetic surgery |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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. Three superlative claims in the clinic’s own text on the home page (“the best in town”, “the highest standards”, “the utmost level of quality”); no guarantee of an outcome. Pages loaded: home page and contact page. [site] The little things that make us the best in town |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 18 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-18 |
| M9 | Patient documents None. committed to the highest standards in cosmetic & aesthetic surgery |

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.
| Identifiable: live public surface + working in-country contact | verified yes [site] |
|---|---|
| Provides the service itself (not an aggregator, booking site or tour packager) | verified yes [site] |
| In scope: the intervention is performed by a physician | verified yes [site] |
| Names a responsible physician | verified yes [site] |
Who is responsible
Named physicians and the legal entity, as published and as matched in the registers. A missing number is a statement about disclosure, not about licensing.
| Physician | Role | Register ID |
|---|---|---|
| Dr. Mohamed [site] | Clinic lead (full name and specialty not published) | not published |

What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — Register closed to machine queries
- M3 · Basic medical licence — Register closed to machine queries
- M4 · Facility registration — Queried, no match
- M8 · Cross-locale consistency — Single language front
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.
