Google Maps listing (reference, not scored)
What the clinic's public Google Maps listing showed when we read it: the rating other people gave, the number of their reviews and the hours the clinic itself publishes there. This block is a reference only — it does not enter the score, the rank, the ceilings or the holds, and we have not checked it beyond matching the listing to this record.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found in the register with a current status; the register does not disclose the specialty, or discloses a different one (including “no specialisation”), and the clinic claims no protected title. The register's own line is shown on the profile. The Section 39B specialist register returns no row for this physician: surname searches SIRIWARDANA and SIRIWARDENA under SEC39BMP return 15 specialists, none of them named AMILA and none carrying a plastic-surgery entry, and the complete 21-row national cohort of Section 39B plastic surgeons (speciality=Plastic) contains no SIRIWARDANA. The physician is found in the Section 29 medical-practitioner register only (reg_no 20792). [slmc] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Physician named with role, tied to the single Police Park Ave address. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-31 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by name in the SLMC Section 29 register: reg_no 20792, SIRIWARDANA HETTIGE AMILA RUWAN PRASAD, 'MBBS [RUHUNA]'. Two independent identifiers agree — the surname plus the given name AMILA, and the primary degree, which the clinic's own doctor page publishes as MBBS (University of Ruhuna). It is the only SIRIWARDANA or SIRIWARDENA row in SEC29 whose given name is AMILA and whose MBBS is from Ruhuna; the clinic publishes no registration number, so the match is by name. [slmc] [site] |

| 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.

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.
