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, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. Ministry of Health specialist-certificate register: certificate 15804 registered 10/11/1997, specialty כירורגיה פלסטית ואסתטית (plastic and aesthetic surgery), matching the advertised surgical menu. [reg] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The responsible physician is named with a role on the clinic's own pages, with the clinic address and a direct contact. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by the licence number the clinic itself publishes. Ministry of Health physician-licence register: licence 20277 registered 26/12/1988. [reg] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M4 | Facility registration 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: none_found, 20 September 2026 — Both user agents receive the identical HTTP 200 Hebrew refusal page of 2,933 bytes (הפעולה אותה ביצעת אינה נתמכת) for every search endpoint, by POST and by GET, while the catalogue endpoints on the same host (GetAllRegistries, GetInstituteTypes) answer JSON normally to both — the class is unscriptable, not slow. Secondary routes: data.gov.il package_search for מוסדות רפואיים and for מרפאות returns only unrelated single-purpose lists and no institution-licence dataset; www.gov.il answers HTTP 403 to both user agents; www.health.gov.il serves a JavaScript anti-bot interstitial (HTTP 202). No secondary facility route found, and this clinic publishes no facility registration number of its own. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-20 |
| 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. Complete scan of the clinic pages loaded found no legal entity, company form or registration number: the site trades under the physician name only, so the ladder stops at brand. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. The site states the specialist title but publishes no licence, certificate, facility or company number and names no issuing body. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| 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. Lexicon scan of the pages loaded: home, contact, an aesthetic-surgery Q&A article, the accessibility statement and the privacy policy. Comparative claims about the surgeon and the methods appear on the home and contact pages; no outcome or safety promise appears.

SEC | 12 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 20 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 |
| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. A published article covers the risks of one of the procedures, and the clinic states that it accompanies the patient through the recovery period; no consent form, revision policy or complaint route is published. Pages loaded: home, contact, Q&A article, accessibility statement, privacy policy. [site] |

- 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.
