AxisFinding (rubric anchor)ValueSource classWeightChecked
M1 Specialist certification of the responsible physician
Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries.
Last attempt: isaps, 18 September 2026 — no match for Salamea Avilés in the ISAPS Ecuador list (16 members), the SECPRE Guayas roll (78 names) or the SECPRE Pichincha directory (62 profiles); no SECPRE chapter publishes a roll for Azuay/Cuenca.
? ? 26 2026-09-18
M2 Identifiability of the responsible physician
Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address.
SEC 16 2026-08-31
M3 Basic medical licence
Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries.
Last attempt: clinic_published_registration, 18 September 2026 — no registration number published on the clinic's own pages, and no society route carries one for this physician (the SECPRE Guayas roll publishes names only; the SECPRE Pichincha directory has no entry for them; ISAPS publishes no numbers).
? ? 8 2026-09-18
M4 Facility registration
Could not verify — this register is closed to machine queries in this country, so the axis is left out of the coverage calculation for every clinic on this site. Not a negative finding. Reason: Register closed to machine queries.
Last attempt: clinic_published_permit, 18 September 2026 — no operating-permit number is published on the clinic's own pages, and the SRI establishment endpoint cannot be entered without a RUC — the clinic publishes none — and would in any case prove only a registered tax establishment, never a health permit.
? ? 10 2026-09-18
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.
A complete scan of the clinic's own pages found no legal entity and no registration number — the practice trades under the surgeon's own name, a trading name without a company form, and no RUC is published anywhere on the site. Pages loaded 2026-09-18: https://juanjosuesalamea.com.ec/, https://juanjosuesalamea.com.ec/equipo-de-trabajo/, https://juanjosuesalamea.com.ec/contacto/. [site]

M6 Self-disclosure of identifiers
No identifiers at all.
No identifiers, registration numbers or issuer logos are published on the site. [site]
SEC 10 2026-08-31
M7 Advertising honesty
No pattern from the lexicon found.
The site's own text states that its techniques guarantee exceptional results, an outcome guarantee. [v1.3 lexicon re-read 2026-09-22: purpose_clause → 5; M7-E] [site]

SEC 12 2026-09-22
M8 Cross-locale consistency
Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front.
Last attempt: clinic_site, 18 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare.

None.
No informed-consent, risk, aftercare, revision-policy or complaint-route document was found. [site]

Score ceilings

No ceiling applies. We never apply one on 'not found' alone.

Holds

No hold on this profile.

Inclusion policy

Four mechanical conditions. The first three decide whether a clinic is listed at all; the fourth decides whether it can be scored.

Names a responsible physicianverified yes [site]

Who is responsible

Named physicians and the legal entity, as published and as matched in the registers. A missing number is a statement about disclosure, not about licensing.

What we could not verify

  • M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — Register closed to machine queries
  • M3 · Basic medical licence — Register closed to machine queries
  • M4 · Facility registration — Register closed to machine queries
  • M8 · Cross-locale consistency — Single language front

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.
