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.

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. DHA professional register: Wolfgang Funk (dhaUniqueId 00245783), Specialist Plastic Surgery, licence 00245783-005 Active (10 Jun 2025 - 10 Jun 2027) at 'Dubai Cosmetic Surgery' — specialty matches the clinic's own advertised focus, status current. [dha-prof] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-29 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Lead surgeon named with role and personal licence code on the clinic's own doctors page, tied to this address. [site] |
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). Matched by name/dhaUniqueId to an Active Specialist Plastic Surgery licence at this facility (00245783-005). The clinic publishes licence 00245783-001, which the register lists as the same physician's earlier (2011–2024) licence at the same facility. [dha-prof] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-29 | |
| 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. DHA facility register: 'Dubai Cosmetic Surgery', Polyclinic (Multiple Specialties), Jumeirah First, facilityId 0046882, Plastic Surgery listed among its specialties, medical director on record is a General Practitioner (not Dr Funk). Register address (villa 1, Jumeirah Street 611) differs from the clinic's own published address (Jumeirah Villa 22, 25 B Street, Umm Suqeim 1); name and facility type otherwise match. [dha-facility] |
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. Brand name only; no separate company legal-entity name published. The federal legal-entity register (NER/growth.gov.ae) is reCAPTCHA-gated. [site] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-08-29 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not. Two physicians' personal licence codes (LC#) published on the site; no facility- or legal-entity-level registration number published. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-29 | |
| 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 the clinic’s own English pages re-run on 2026-09-20 (home https://www.dubaicosmeticsurgery.com/, its service menu and the procedure blocks): no outcome or safety guarantee in the clinic’s own text; unsourced comparative claims recur across the home page sections, which is the systematic pattern. [site] We rely on our unmatched expertise and extensive experience in cosmetic surgery |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-20 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Some facts appear on only one front. Mechanical comparison of 2 language fronts (en, x-العربية) on 2026-09-21: physician "Prof. Dr. Dr. Wolfgang Funk" on en only; physician "Dr. Rutsnei Schmitz" on en only; a phone number appears on one front only; number 00180583008 on en only.
