Summary
Plastic-surgery clinic in downtown Montreal. Responsible surgeon named with role and tied to this address; the facility is found in the provincial register of authorized specialized medical centres with a scope covering breast, body-contouring and facial procedures. The Quebec physician register lists the named surgeon with an active registration and a specialist certificate in plastic surgery, and states no disciplinary file; the national specialist register, where inclusion is voluntary, returns no record for him. The clinic names no operating legal entity.
Registers read for the jurisdiction: QC.

| 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. Collège des médecins du Québec, bottin des médecins, searched by surname through the public form in the operator’s browser on 2026-09-21: Doumit, Gaby D. — permit 12179, regular permit, status “Inscrit - Actif”, Montréal; specialist certificate in plastic surgery issued 2012; the card states no disciplinary file for this member and no history of restrictions. The Collège is the body that issues specialist certificates in Quebec; the specialty matches what the clinic advertises and the status is current. The national directory (Royal College), where inclusion is voluntary, returned no record on 2026-09-20. read via browser [cmq] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-21 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-29 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Collège des médecins du Québec, bottin des médecins, searched by surname through the public form in the operator’s browser on 2026-09-21: Doumit, Gaby D. — permit 12179, regular permit, status “Inscrit - Actif”, Montréal; specialist certificate in plastic surgery issued 2012; the card states no disciplinary file for this member and no history of restrictions. The clinic publishes no permit number of its own, so the match is by name. read via browser [cmq] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-21 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Record found: name, address and status match. Facility matched in Québec's register of authorized specialized medical centres (centres médicaux spécialisés) at this exact address, with an authorized scope including breast augmentation, abdominoplasty and rhinoplasty. [msss-cms] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-08-29 | |
| 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. Complete scan of the clinic's own pages (home, about, team, surgeon, contact, privacy policy and procedure pages): no operating company, legal form or registration number is named; the privacy policy names the surgeon personally as the operator. [site-privacy] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. Board certifications and academic appointments are stated as text with their issuers named; no licence, facility or company registration number is published anywhere on the site. [site-doumit] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| 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 superlative wording (a 'No. 1' ranking claim and a 'most innovative' claim, neither naming an issuer) across the home page and the French contact page. [site] [site-fr] Notre cabinet est classé n°1 en chirurgie plastique et esthétique à Montréal, Québec. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-29 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency All load-bearing fields agree. Mechanical comparison of 2 language fronts (en, fr) on 2026-09-17: every matched physician name, phone number and published number appears on every front. [fronts] |
SEC | 5 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. Pages loaded for the scan: home, about, team, surgeon, contact, privacy policy, the facelift recovery guide and several body procedure pages. Two of the five classes are published: risk and complication information on the procedure pages, and week-by-week post-operative guidance. No consent document, revision policy or complaint route was found. [site-recovery] [site] |
