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 Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada directory: Bernier, Mario F., Laval, QC, category Fellow, designation FRCSC, certification Plastic Surgery (Primary, Certification by Examination, 1995-08-30). Specialty matches the aesthetic surgery the clinic offers; status current. [rcpsc] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-20 | |
| 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 The register of this class is not machine-accessible or does not cover this class of practitioner; the clinic itself publishes the number. Quebec's licence register (CMQ bottin) is not machine-accessible; the clinic itself publishes the surgeon's Quebec specialist certificate number with its issuer on its breast-augmentation page. [site-breastaug] Certificat de chirurgie plastique #13322 |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Found with a spelling discrepancy; or the location is registered under the name of the host facility at the same address (a practice inside a hospital or a centre); or the value comes from a mirror or from a directory that shows no status — the profile names the record holder verbatim. The clinic's consultation office (this address) is in Laval; the clinic's own site states that its breast surgeries are performed at a named Montreal-area surgical facility, which is matched in Québec's register of authorized specialized medical centres with an authorized scope including breast augmentation and reduction. [site] [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, biography, clinic, contact, terms of use): the operator is given as a trading name without a legal form and without a registration number. [site-terms] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not. The surgeon's Quebec specialist certificate number is published with its issuing college; the other credentials are named with their issuers but without numbers, and no facility or company registration number is published. [site-bio] [site-breastaug] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. No guarantee or superlative language found on the reviewed pages; patient testimonials are out of scope for this axis. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-29 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency All load-bearing fields agree. Mechanical comparison of 3 language fronts (fr, en, x-english) 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, clinic, biography, contact, terms of use and the breast-augmentation procedure page. Three of the five classes are published: risks and complications, a written-information-and-signature step before surgery, and post-operative guidance with activity limits. No revision policy and no complaint route were found. [site-breastaug] [site-clinique] |
