Google Maps listing (reference, not scored)
What the clinic's public Google Maps listing showed when we read it: the rating other people gave, the number of their reviews and the hours the clinic itself publishes there. This block is a reference only — it does not enter the score, the rank, the ceilings or the holds, and we have not checked it beyond matching the listing to this record.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. Both named physicians found in HealthPro (FPS Public Health) with speciality MBS55 (dermato-venereology), status current. [healthpro-vuerstaek] [healthpro-goessens] |

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 NIHDI number: Vuerstaek 17368344, Bullens-Goessens 17368047.

OFF | 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, 20 September 2026 — recordsTotal 0 on every leg. The register covers the whole of Flanders, where this treatment address lies, and the positive control Name=Universitair Ziekenhuis Gent returned recordsTotal 2 in the same session. Belgian law recognises hospitals, not private clinics, so the absence of a row is the expected state and is not a finding about this clinic. Queried in the Flemish care-facility register (CoBRHA Viewer) by enterprise number and by name; no row returned. Belgian law recognises hospitals, not private clinics, so this axis carries no value for a private practice. |

| 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. Legal entity DermaClinic matched in KBO/BCE by name, address and phone number. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic pages (audit not_published); the clinic names the entity at https://www.derma.clinic/ — matched by name] [kbo] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. No licence, facility or company registration numbers published on the clinic's own site. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. Home and clinic pages checked; no lexicon terms found. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-31 | |
| 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. |

| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. Two of the five classes are published: risks and complications (a risks-and-complications section on the varicose-vein page, an adverse-effects passage on the excessive-perspiration page) and aftercare (advice to cool the injection site after treatment). No informed-consent document, revision policy or complaint route was found.

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.
