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 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: napras, 1 September 2026 — secondary source names the physician (former M1 = 2); shown on the profile as a fact — M1 is not scored while the country's specialist register is closed |
? | ? | 26 | 2026-09-18 |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-01 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence 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: napras, 18 September 2026 — MDCN’s public lookup answers HTTP 500 and its portal route is fee- and account-gated. Secondary routes run for the founder: the NAPRAS surname search (POST lastname=Opara) returns his association record; the ISAPS Nigeria member list does not include him. Neither is a licence register and the clinic publishes no MDCN folio number. |
? | ? | 8 | 2026-09-18 |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Queried, no match. Last attempt: facility_registry, 18 September 2026 — 0 rows for the trading name; the full Rivers listing carries no facility under this name and none at the Centenary Gardens address. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-18 |
| 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 page names no legal entity: the footer carries the trading name and a year only. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-01 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty One or two soft superlatives or non-absolute safety promises. Based on the limited text retrievable from this JavaScript-rendered site. [site] bridge the gap between world-class surgical precision and luxury hospitality |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-01 | |
| 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 One. A monitored-aftercare claim is published; no dedicated consent, risk, revision-policy or complaint-route page found in the retrievable text. [site] |

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.
| Physician | Role | Register ID |
|---|---|---|

Secondary findings (not scored)
What a professional society, an international directory, a hospital page or another jurisdiction’s register says, shown for information where the country’s own register is closed. These facts enter neither the score nor the coverage.
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician SECNamed physician matched by name in the national plastic surgeons association directory (secondary source); declared specialisation includes cosmetic and reconstructive surgery.[napras]
What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — Register closed to machine queries
- M3 · Basic medical licence — Register closed to machine queries
- M4 · Facility registration — Queried, no match
- 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.
