Axis by axis
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 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: sfep, 18 September 2026 — Socialstyrelsen HOSP re-probed 2026-09-18 and still has no machine front door, so M1 is not scored on this site. Secondary route sfep re-run the same day (X-WP-Total: 79): Richard Lewin, Carolina Boren and Dan Fagrell are all in the 79-member SFEP roster. The finding is carried in facts[], outside the score. |

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: sfep, 18 September 2026 — HOSP re-probed 2026-09-18: the register answers HTTP 200 but has no query surface at all (telephone 075-247 42 42 and HOSP@socialstyrelsen.se only; the e-service search is a content search). Secondary route sfep run the same day: Richard Lewin, Carolina Boren and Dan Fagrell are all in the 79-member SFEP roster. SFEP admits only legitimerade lakare, so this is an association attestation and never a licence record. |

| 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: none_found, 18 September 2026 — IVO re-probed 2026-09-18: the vardgivarregister page and the register-extract page both answer HTTP 200 but neither takes a query — extracts are issued only on written request to registerfragor@ivo.se and the site search is rendered client-side (the server-side query string is dropped). registry-map facility_registry.secondaryRoutes = none_found: 1177 Hitta vard is client-rendered and covers region-contracted care, allabolag answers 403 and ratsit needs JavaScript, and both are company mirrors rather than a facility register. No facility registration could be read for this clinic. |

| 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. The clinic names its operating company on its own pages — Elite Clinic Boren & Lewin Plastikkirurgi AB — but publishes no organisationsnummer. Matched by name in the Bolagsverket bulk file (own query 2026-09-18): Elite Clinic Boren & Lewin Plastikkirurgi AB 559197-8951, registered 2019-03-07, no deregistration date, Entreprenorsstraket 1C Molndal — the address the clinic gives. VIES confirms the same VAT registration as valid. Matched by name, not by a number the clinic published. [site] [vies] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. Full operating-company name self-disclosed in the site footer copyright line; no registration number published. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. No guarantee, "100%" or superlative-without-issuer language found in the pages reviewed. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Some facts appear on only one front. Mechanical comparison of 4 language fronts (sv, no, da, en) on 2026-09-21: a phone number appears on one front only. [fronts] |

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.
| Identifiable: live public surface + working in-country contact | verified yes [site] |
|---|---|
| Provides the service itself (not an aggregator, booking site or tour packager) | verified yes [site] |
| In scope: the intervention is performed by a physician | verified yes [site] |
| Names a responsible physician | verified 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.

Scope and procedure segments
Clinic focus: specialist (no focus adjustment) [site]
Secondary findings (not scored)
What a professional society, an international directory, a hospital page or another jurisdiction’s register says, shown for information where the country’s own register is closed. These facts enter neither the score nor the coverage.
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician SECNamed on the SFEP member directory (association; Sweden's state specialist register HOSP has no online lookup). SFEP profile records specialist-since 2010 (Richard Lewin), 2008 (Carolina Borén).[sfep-lewin] [sfep-boren] [sfep-fagrell]
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
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.
