Summary
Hair-restoration clinic at Alfredo Street, Woodbrook, Port of Spain, established in 2020. The published menu is follicular unit extraction for the scalp, beard and eyebrows, together with platelet-rich plasma therapy and post-operative hair care. The founder and chief surgeon, Dr Emerson Budhoo, is named with his role; he is matched in the national medical register with specialist registration in orthopaedic surgery, the specialty the clinic itself states.
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.

| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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. MBTT National Register, matched by surname, given name and the specialty the clinic itself states: 'Dr. Emerson Junior Budhoo' (member_id=8025), Status 'Specialist Registration - Orthopaedic Surgery', registered 11-07-2007. The advertised service is hair transplantation; orthopaedic surgery is not on the closed list of adjacent specialties, and the clinic claims no protected title beyond the orthopaedic specialty the register shows. read via crawler [mbtt] [mbtt-detail] [site-doctor-profile] Specialist Registration - Orthopaedic Surgery |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-24 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. The founder and chief surgeon is named in full with his role and a biography on the doctor profile page, and the clinic publishes one address. read via crawler [site-doctor-profile] [site-contact] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-24 | |
| M3 | Basic medical licence Matched by name (surname stem and given name or initial; a second identifier where the name is ambiguous). Matched by surname, given name and stated specialty in the national medical register (Specialist Registration); the clinic publishes no registration number. read via crawler [mbtt] [mbtt-detail] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-24 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Not applicable: this country has no Facility register. |
— | — | — | 2026-09-24 |
| 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 site names the operating company in its page footer; the Companies Registry returns CARIBBEAN HAIR TRANSPLANT CENTRE LTD, C2020031100141, RecordStatus ACTIVE, registered 05/03/2020. The clinic does not publish the company number itself. [company] [site-home] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-19 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Logos without numbers. The operating company is named in the footer and the founder’s training institution is described, but no registration, licence or company number is published on the pages loaded. [site-about] [site-home] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-19 | |
| M7 | Advertising honesty Systematic superlatives; systematic safety promises without an absolute; absolutes about the past (success rates, “no infection since …”, satisfaction figures, “we guarantee your satisfaction”); comparisons with surgery. Superlative marketing language recurs on the home, about and services pages; the quoted sentence is one instance. No outcome guarantee and no absolute safety or success statement found outside patient testimonials, which are out of scope. [site-home] [site-about] [site-services] The Caribbean Hair Transplant Clinic is the first and only clinic of its kind in the Caribbean to have cutting-edge hair transplant procedures. |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-19 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 19 September 2026 — one language front; no hreflang alternates or language links The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-24 |
| M9 | Patient documents Two or three. Two of the five classes are published: the FAQ describes post-operative soreness, numbness and pain and the recovery period, and the site carries a dedicated hair and scalp aftercare page. No informed-consent document, revision policy or complaint route was found on the pages loaded. [site-faq] [site-home] |

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.
