| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. Found in the Lebanese Order of Physicians (Beirut) register by name; the specialty column lists Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. [register] |

| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by name in the Order of Physicians register (registration is the licence to practise). [register] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Could not verify — by its own definition this register does not cover this class of facility or this territory, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for this record. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register does not cover this class of facility or this territory. Last attempt: none_found, 22 September 2026 — § A: the register of this class does not cover this unit by its own definition (scopeGap quoted in the map: All Facilities Private Hospitals Radiology Lab PHC Centers Dental Lab Physiotherapy Center…); previous state null not_found — 0 rows for "Plastic Surgery Institute" and "Shehadi" across all facility types and all cazas; control query name=Clemenceau on the same endpoint returned the Clemenceau Medical Center row, so the filt |

| 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 clinic's own site. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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. Lexicon scan of https://psi-lb.com/ (single-page site carrying the home, about and contact sections) on 2026-09-20: superlatives about the surgeon recur in the heading, the body copy and the testimonial block, with no issuer named; no outcome or safety guarantee found.

SEC | 12 | 2026-09-20 | |
| 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. |

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

Scope and procedure segments
Clinic focus: specialist (no focus adjustment) [site]
What we could not verify
- M4 · Facility registration — Register does not cover this class of facility or this territory
- 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.
