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 20250 registered 16/06/2003, 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 name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Ministry of Health physician-licence register: licence 27973 registered 03/01/1996. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit not_published) — matched by name] [reg] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| 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 The clinic names the legal entity or the responsible person in its legal notice and the record is found by name; or the number the clinic publishes leads to an entity with a different name that is tied to this location by the same address or the same responsible person. The clinic names its operating company on its own pages without a registration number; the Registrar of Companies returns that name as company 514273218, active Israeli private company incorporated 19/05/2009, registered office HaBarzel 9, Tel Aviv-Yafo — the street the centre publishes as its address. [company] [site] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. The site states the specialist title and names the issuing body and the professional association, but publishes no licence, certificate, facility or company number. [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, about, contact, the accessibility statement and the privacy policy. Comparative claims about the centre, its standards and its service recur on the home page; no outcome or safety promise appears. [site] המרכז המוביל לכירורגיה פלסטית אסתטית בישראל |
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 None. Complete scan of the pages loaded — home, about, contact, accessibility statement and privacy policy — found none of the five patient-document classes: no consent form, risks disclosure, aftercare instructions, revision policy or complaint route. [site] |

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.
