Vertex Hair Clinic

Google Maps listing (reference, not scored)
What the clinic's public Google Maps listing showed when we read it: the rating other people gave, the number of their reviews and the hours the clinic itself publishes there. This block is a reference only — it does not enter the score, the rank, the ceilings or the holds, and we have not checked it beyond matching the listing to this record.

| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Only a secondary source (society, association, directory) supports the certification, while the official register of this class is open in the jurisdiction. Found in the JMA register with a general-medicine record only; no ENT or hair-restoration specialty entry, and no match in the Ministry of Health licensed-specialist-clinic list. The surgical training claimed is stated on the clinic's own site and professional-society membership pages. [jma-spec] |

| 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). JMA membership record: practising, matched by union number. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit no_number_on_record) — matched by name] [jma-reg] |

| 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. The clinic's own home page names no legal entity with a legal form or registration number — brand only (v1.2 rule). [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. Royal College of Surgeons and hair-restoration society memberships named without certificate or registration numbers. [site] |

| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. |

| M8 | Cross-locale consistency All load-bearing fields agree. Mechanical comparison of 4 language fronts (en, ar, it, fr) on 2026-09-19: every matched physician name, phone number and published number appears on every front. [fronts] |
SEC | 5 | 2026-09-19 | |

What we could not verify
- M4 · Facility registration — Queried, no match
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.
