Axis by axis

| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found in the register with a current status; the register does not disclose the specialty, or discloses a different one (including “no specialisation”), and the clinic claims no protected title. The register's own line is shown on the profile. The physician responsible for the aesthetic service is Dr. Mohammad Jawad (founder, lead plastic surgeon). PMDC register: matched uniquely by full name (RegistrationNo 10773-N, Status ACTIVE, ValidUpto 30/12/2029) with only a BASIC MEDICAL QUALIFICATION (M.B.,B.S., University of Peshawar, 2002) recorded; no plastic-surgery specialty is disclosed. Co-named Dr. Ghulam Shabbir also matched (10486-P) with only a basic qualification, licence lapsed since 1994 (facts only, not the driver). Dr. Fahad Mirza returned 0 PMDC records under that name.

OFF | 26 | 2026-09-18 | |
| 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). Matched by name: PMDC registration 10773-N, Dr. Mohammad Jawad, Permanent, ValidUpto 30/12/2029, Status ACTIVE. Number is not published by the clinic. [pmdc] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Found with a spelling discrepancy; or the location is registered under the name of the host facility at the same address (a practice inside a hospital or a centre); or the value comes from a mirror or from a directory that shows no status — the profile names the record holder verbatim. Sindh Healthcare Commission provisional-licence list, row 577: 'R5 Aesthetic & Healthcare', 32-C 3rd & 4th floor, Karachi South, SHCC/DLA/PL/0472 — building number matches the clinic's own published address; the PDF's address field is truncated before the street name. [facility] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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 pages (home, about-r5, terms-conditions) name no legal entity with a legal form; brand name only. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. |
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, 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. None of the five document classes (informed consent, risks/contraindications, aftercare, revision policy, complaint route) are published on the clinic's own pages. [site] |

Inclusion policy
Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

Who is responsible

What we could not verify
- 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.
