Who this clinic is
We show what a clinic states versus what is independently verified. Registry checks (Ministry of Health / HealthTürkiye / dental council) are performed by our editors — items marked "pending" have not yet been independently verified.
What the ranking rests on
Ranking reflects evidence coverage (usable records across independent platforms) plus complaint record and editorial/clinical review. Credential, address-precision and evidence-window fields are published for transparency, not asserted beyond what the sources support. Full machine-readable eligibility for every clinic is in the clinic index.

Ratings are Bayesian-adjusted so a handful of five-star reviews cannot outweigh a documented complaint record. Negative reviews are classified as incidents in Complaint & Safety and are not deducted again here.

What the clinic has said
Right of reply offered on 2026-07-14 (response window to 2026-07-28).
