Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-30 | Searched Facebook for the clinic by its name with the city, by its phone number and by its name alone; none of the searches found a page of the clinic. Recorded absence from Facebook. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: Google rating 4.8 (was 5) and review count 15 (was 13) from the Google listing on 2026-09-29; review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-26). |
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's single-page website (RU and UZ versions, read on 2026-09-24 as text because the site did not accept a direct connection) and its Google listing across four review sortings. Recorded: the site's FAQ claims a full price list is published, but none was found; no WhatsApp (only Instagram and Telegram); booking is by phone or social media only; the six named specialties are explained in plain language. An owner reply to a critical review was found; only one negative review exists, with no repeated pattern. No structured data and no dedicated service pages. Not found on TripAdvisor. Still unverified: Facebook presence, on-site equipment (X-ray/CBCT not described). |
