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 3447 registered 06/10/2014, specialty כירורגיה פלסטית ואסתטית (plastic and aesthetic surgery), matching the advertised surgical menu. The earlier attempt missed the record because the register writes the surname as two words, אל חטיב פאהום. [reg] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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 38243 registered 26/04/2007. [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 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 site (home, about, contact, terms, privacy policy, accessibility statement) found no legal entity, company form or registration number; the site trades under the clinic brand and the physician name only. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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 |
| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. Risks-of-treatment disclosure and personal aftercare follow-up both stated on the site; no consent form, revision policy or complaint route identified. [site] כל טיפול רפואי כרוך בסיכון מסוים |

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] |
| 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.

What we could not verify
- M4 · Facility registration — Register closed to machine queries
- 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.
