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: ods, 18 September 2026 — No match on either secondary route: the international society directory holds only two Oman-located members (Dr. Sheikhan Al Hashmi, Dr. Gopal Malhotra) and the society roster names none of this record’s physicians. Absence carries no information about certification — both lists are small and skewed. The country’s own specialist register (hakeem.omsb.gov.om) is login-gated (closedAttempt on record), so M1 is not scored anywhere on this site (methodology v1.2 § 7). |

| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Named; role unclear. One surgeon named with role and qualifications on the branch department listing; the profile page the listing links to does not resolve. [site-doctors] [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Not applicable: this country has no Medical licence register. No public practitioner register exists in Oman (register map: medical_licence = null). |

| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The clinic names the legal entity or the responsible person in its legal notice and the record is found by name; or the number the clinic publishes leads to an entity with a different name that is tied to this location by the same address or the same responsible person. |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. No licence, registration or physician numbers published on the department, contact or footer pages. [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. Ranking claims without a named issuer appear in the page title, the page description and repeatedly on the branch home page. [site] Best Plastic Surgery Hospital in Muscat | Badr Al Samaa Oman |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-30 | |
| 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. |

What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — Register closed to machine queries
- 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.
