- Specialist-led
Summary
Multi-speciality hospital in Malé whose dermatology and plastic-surgery departments each name a physician: a dermatologist holding a permanent registration and a plastic surgeon listed under a temporary registration that the register dates to 24 December 2025. The dermatologist and the facility's operating company are matched in the Maldives Medical & Dental Council register and the Business Registry; the facility itself is matched by contact details in the Ministry of Health facility register under a differently-named entry on the same road.
The clinic's own About page carries accreditation and award claims examined under M7.

| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. MMDC register: Dr. Fathimath Mausooma holds Permanent Registration with Dermatology as speciality, licence valid to 04 May 2031, matched by name (the clinic does not publish a registration number for her). The clinic's second named aesthetic-relevant physician, Dr. Manoj Maruti Sanap, holds a Temporary Registration with Plastic Surgery as 2nd speciality that expired 24 December 2025. [mmdc] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Both physicians are named with a role category on the clinic's own site that directly matches the service line they are tied to ('Dermatologist' on the dermatology roster, 'Plastic Surgeon' on the plastic-surgery roster). [site-find-a-doctor] [site-doctor-mausooma] [site-doctor-sanap] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-09-18 | |
| 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 for Dr. Fathimath Mausooma (Permanent Registration, currently valid to 04 May 2031); Dr. Manoj Maruti Sanap's Temporary Registration (Plastic Surgery, PL 05124/TMR 6102) expired 24 December 2025. [v1.3 2026-09-22: the number is not printed on the clinic's own pages (audit no_number_on_record) — matched by name] [mmdc] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-22 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Found with a spelling discrepancy; or the location is registered under the name of the host facility at the same address (a practice inside a hospital or a centre); or the value comes from a mirror or from a directory that shows no status — the profile names the record holder verbatim. Ministry of Health facility register (December 2024 edition) lists an entry named 'Medica Annex', HF-12/ALP/PVT/385, operating licence PVT-GH-24-505-00 (general-hospital facility code), issued 08 July 2024, on the Daaf Store premises, Faamudheyri Magu, Maafannu, Malé — the same road as the clinic's own published address (M. Dahana, Faamudheyri Magu) though a different building name — with phone 3002255 and email info@medica.com.mv matching the clinic's own published contacts exactly. A separate register row named plain 'Medica' at a different address and phone is not this facility. [moh] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-09-18 | |
| 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 clinic's own homepage names 'METRO MEDICA PRIVATE LIMITED' (footer heading) without a registration number; the Business Registry matches by name (C-0567/2012, Registered, business activity 8610 Hospital activities at M. Dahana, Faamudheyrimagu, Malé). [site-home] [bizreg] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-09-18 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers No identifiers at all. |
SEC | 10 | 2026-09-18 | |
| 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. The About page makes a first-in-Asia accreditation claim (Joint Commission International, 2002, re-accredited five times since) and separately displays two award badges with no issuing body named. [site-about] In 2002, Medica Hospital was the first hospital in Asia to be accredited by the US-based Joint Commission International (JCI). The hospital has also been re-accredited five times consecutively |
SEC | 12 | 2026-09-18 | |
| 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. |

What we could not verify
- 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.
