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: isaps, 17 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 [register note, not shown: The Ordre's Annuaire is published but holds no records. Secondary routes run in order: the Belgian INAMI register carries him with the qualification of specialist in plastic surgery, and the SOFCEP me] |
? | ? | 26 | 2026-09-17 |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Dr. Samy Joheir named with role, tied to the Prima Center address. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-02 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Licence claimed without a number. The Ivorian Tableau de l'Ordre is not machine-accessible (the Annuaire returns 0 records). The clinic publishes a registration number in its own page footer — the Belgian INAMI number 1-68342-50-210 — which matches the Belgian register row; no Ivorian licence number is published anywhere. [v1.3 2026-09-22: number not found on the clinic pages → claimed without a number] [inami-joheir] [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Queried, no match. Last attempt: facility_registry, 17 September 2026 — Both open DEPPS routes completed today and returned no matching establishment. The three PDF rows containing "Prima Center" are dental cabinets (CENTRE IVOIRE DENTAIRE, CABINET DENTAIRE LUMIERE twice), not this practice. DEPPS facility map and June 2026 repertoire were searched for 'Prima' and 'Joheir'; no matching establishment record was found (a dental cabinet in the same building is registered separately). [audit: register miss → null, not a value] [geojson-prima] [pdf-prima] |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-17 |
| 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. Brand only; no distinct legal entity named on the site. RCCM Abidjan searches for 'Joheir' and 'Prima' returned no matching entity. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-02 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not. Belgian INAMI licence number published with issuer; no Ivorian facility or company number published. [site] [site-landing] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-02 | |
| 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. Systematic no-issuer superlatives across the clinic's own pages. [site] [site-landing] [site-joheir-medical] l'un des chirurgiens plasticiens les plus expérimentés |
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. Treatment menu published; no explicit consent, risk-disclosure, aftercare, revision or complaint document found on the site. [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.
| Identifiable: live public surface + working in-country contact | 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.

Legal entity: could not verify
Scope and procedure segments
Clinic focus: specialist (no focus adjustment) [site]
What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — 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.
