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 Only a secondary source (association, aggregator) supports the certification. Listed in the ISAPS find-a-surgeon directory for Saudi Arabia as "Dr. Ahmed Hassanein", status "Active", job title "Registrar of plastic and reconstructive surgery", Al Safwa Hospital, Riyadh; the ISAPS card publishes this practice’s own website (dr-ahmedabdelazim.com) and a biography naming the same physician and Riyadh practice. Saudi Arabia publishes no machine-readable specialty register, so this is secondary provenance and the rubric caps M1 at 2. [isaps] |
SEC | 26 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The responsible physician is named with his role and qualifications and tied to a street address in Al Sulaimaniyah, Riyadh, with a phone number and e-mail. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Register not machine-accessible. Last attempt: isaps, 17 September 2026 — None of the open secondary routes publishes a Saudi practitioner licence or SCFHS registration number, and this clinic publishes no licence number on any of its own pages, so the M3 = 3 anchor (register closed, number published by the clinic) is unavailable. |
? | ? | 8 | 2026-09-17 |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Register not machine-accessible. Last attempt: cbahi, 17 September 2026 — The MoH facility-licence hosts, every CBAHI hostname and both national open-data hosts refuse TCP from this environment; seha.sa is a sign-in-walled single-page app with no public facility directory. No facility record could be looked up for this clinic. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-17 |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability Legal entity named; register not accessible. The practice names its operating entity on its own blog page as "شركة د. أحمد عبد العظيم"; the commercial register is not machine-accessible, so the entity could not be matched against it. [site-blogs] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. No licence, facility or entity numbers published; credentials are named by issuer only (Cairo University MBBS 2004 and MSc in surgery 2010, membership of ESPRS and of ISAPS), without registration numbers. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. No guarantee, percentage claim or superlative from the lexicon found in the practice’s own text; the only lexicon hits are inside the standard cookie-policy wording. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-17 | |
| 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 | 2026-09-17 |
| M9 | Patient documents None. No consent, risks, aftercare, revision-policy or complaint-route material found on the pages served by this site. [site] |
