Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-30 | Re-read the clinic's Google listing and its Facebook page (every post of the past year) on 2026-09-30: the service list and the absence of an English website version now rest on these channels; prices recorded - no standing price list, cleaning figures only in dated promotions, and a free examination for children offered in September 2026. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-07-31). |
| 2026-08-26 | Live Google Maps browse 2026-08-26: captured genuine Google rating (3.8, 12 reviews) and canonical place URL for Clínica Orthomed (sucursal 2), replacing the previously-noted non-comparable Cybo score. |
| 2026-08-26 | Re-verified live facts (contacts, operating status): no changes. A 3.8 rating was visible on a Google Maps search snippet but had no citable place URL or review count, so was not recorded. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: no website on file for this clinic, and no search result could be opened on that date either, so no independent source could be opened to reverify name, address, phone, operating status, or Google rating. Stored facts left unverified today; no changes recorded. |
| 2026-08-25 | Removed manual red flag(s) no_clinic_license, no_doctor_credentials: they asserted unpublished licensing while the underlying data was unverified (null means "not checked", not "not published"). See methodology v1.3.0. |
| 2026-08-18 | Imported from the city-tier dataset. |
