Dr. Ahmed Abdelazim Clinic

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: isaps, 17 September 2026 — secondary source names the physician (former M1 = 2); shown on the profile as a fact — M1 is not scored while the country's specialist register is closed |
? | ? | 26 | 2026-09-17 |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The responsible physician is named with his role and qualifications and tied to a street address in Al Sulaimaniyah, Riyadh, with a phone number and e-mail. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-17 | |
| 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: isaps, 17 September 2026 — None of the open secondary routes publishes a Saudi practitioner licence or SCFHS registration number, and this clinic publishes no licence number on any of its own pages, so the M3 = 3 anchor (register closed, number published by the clinic) is unavailable. |
? | ? | 8 | 2026-09-17 |
| 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: cbahi, 17 September 2026 — The MoH facility-licence hosts, every CBAHI hostname and both national open-data hosts refuse TCP from this environment; seha.sa is a sign-in-walled single-page app with no public facility directory. No facility record could be looked up for this clinic. |
? | ? | 10 | 2026-09-17 |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The legal entity is named; the register of this class is not accessible or does not cover this legal form (sole practitioner, private practice). The practice names its operating entity on its own blog page as "شركة د. أحمد عبد العظيم"; the commercial register is not machine-accessible, so the entity could not be matched against it. [site-blogs] |
SEC | 8 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. No licence, facility or entity numbers published; credentials are named by issuer only (Cairo University MBBS 2004 and MSc in surgery 2010, membership of ESPRS and of ISAPS), without registration numbers. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty No pattern from the lexicon found. No guarantee, percentage claim or superlative from the lexicon found in the practice’s own text; the only lexicon hits are inside the standard cookie-policy wording. [site] |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 17 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-17 |
| M9 | Patient documents None. No consent, risks, aftercare, revision-policy or complaint-route material found on the pages served by this site. [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.
| 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.
| Physician | Role | Register ID |
|---|---|---|
| Dr. Ahmed Abdelazim (Ahmed Hassanein) [site] [isaps] | Plastic surgeon; body contouring and post-weight-loss body lifting | not published |
Legal entity: شركة د. أحمد عبد العظيم (Dr. Ahmed Abdelazim Company) [site-blogs]

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 SECListed in the ISAPS find-a-surgeon directory for Saudi Arabia as "Dr. Ahmed Hassanein", status "Active", job title "Registrar of plastic and reconstructive surgery", Al Safwa Hospital, Riyadh; the ISAPS card publishes this practice’s own website (dr-ahmedabdelazim.com) and a biography naming the same physician and Riyadh practice. Saudi Arabia publishes no machine-readable specialty register, so this is secondary provenance and the rubric caps M1 at 2.[isaps]
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.
