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 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.

— | — | — | 2026-09-24 |
| 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. Brand only: the clinic names no legal entity anywhere on the pages loaded on 2026-09-17 (/, /especialistas/dr-emilio-meneses-castillo/, /contacto/) - no razon social, no S.A., no NIT, and the copyright line carries the brand or the physician name. The Guatemalan company registers were re-run first and remain closed (the SAT RTU bearer is minted only behind a reCAPTCHA; the Registro Mercantil E-Consulta at econsultas.registromercantil.gob.gt serves the Apache2 default page and /ServicioTramite is 404; its e-portal is login + CAPTCHA; OpenCorporates answers 403 on the web and 401 on the API), so no entity could be looked up either.

| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. No professional-society membership or registration number published on the pages reviewed. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-01 | |

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. |

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. Emilio José Meneses Castillo [site] [acpg] | Plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgeon | not published |
| Dr. Guillermo Echeverría Roldán [site] [acpg] | Plastic, aesthetic and reconstructive surgeon | not published |
Legal entity: could not verify
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 doctor appears in the ACPG (Asociación de Cirujanos Plásticos de Guatemala) ‘Miembros activos’ roster with a plastic-surgery specialty line; association provenance, capped at 2 per methodology (no state specialty register exists in Guatemala).[acpg]
What we could not verify
- M1 · Specialist certification of the responsible physician — 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.
