AxisFinding (rubric anchor)ValueSource classWeightChecked
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.
Supported only by a secondary source: SBCP member listing (association) for the coordinating surgeon. The national specialist-board register is not machine-accessible for a Rio de Janeiro registration, and no matching plastic-surgeon occupation record was found for this physician in the national professional register.

SEC 26 2026-08-30
M2 Identifiability of the responsible physician
Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address.
SEC 16 2026-08-30
M3 Basic medical licence
Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous).
Both named physicians were matched by full name in the Ministry of Health CNES professional register on 2026-09-20, each with a current medical post (competência 09/2026) at a registered establishment. CNES records the occupation held at a registered establishment; it is not a licence-number match, and the Rio de Janeiro council search is served by the captcha-gated national CFM API, so no match by CRM number was possible. [cnes-prof-loop]
OFF 8 2026-09-20
M4 Facility registration
Record found: name, address and status match.
Facility record found: name, address (Av. Pasteur 72, Botafogo) and status match; hospital-level facility. [cnes-est]
OFF 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.
Legal entity active in the national company register at the hospital's address. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the clinic publishes neither the number nor the legal entity (audit not_published, entity name not found on the clinic pages; the entity was found by us — shown as a fact)] [cnpj]
OFF 8 2026-09-22
M6 Self-disclosure of identifiers
Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not.
Physician licence and specialty numbers published (CRM, RQE) for the surgical team; council and sanitary-licensing categories are named but no facility or legal-entity registration number is published. [site]
SEC 10 2026-08-30
M7 Advertising honesty
Systematic superlatives; systematic safety promises without an absolute; absolutes about the past (success rates, “no infection since …”, satisfaction figures, “we guarantee your satisfaction”); comparisons with surgery.
Superlative claims without a named issuer recur on the landing page, the specialty pages and the mission statement. No outcome or safety guarantee was found. Pages loaded on 2026-09-20: /cirurgiao-plastico-rio-de-janeiro/, /, /cti/, /contato/, /compliance-policlinica-de-botafogo/ and the six physician pages. [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.

In scope: the intervention is performed by a physicianverified yes [site]
Names a responsible physicianverified 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.

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.

  • M5 · Legal-entity traceability SEC
    Company register entry found for Policlínica de Botafogo (33.641.176/0001-81); the clinic's own surface names neither the entity nor the number.

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.
