Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-08-26 | Re-verification 2026-08-26: no website on record (unchanged, still none found). Confirmed address (109/12 Phuket Rd) and phone (076 212 766) match a 'Dds Dental Clinic' Google Maps listing showing 4.4 stars / 29 reviews with normal posted hours (not closed). A place-page URL in an acceptable citable format (google.com/maps/place/..., a cid link, or a short link) could not be obtained despite repeated navigation and click attempts on that listing — it only ever resolved to a /maps/search/ results page — so the rating and review count are not recorded as sourced criteria per the sourcing rules; operating status and contact details are recorded as confirmed since they did not require the same citation format. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against Thailand's Private Healthcare Facility Verification registry: no clinic establishment license match found under a reasonable Thai-name transliteration; clinic has no own website to check, so recorded null rather than false. No doctors currently listed in this clinic's licensing record to check (six dentists are named only in the general listing, not yet in the licensing sub-record). |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: no website on file to check, and web search tools were unavailable this session (WebSearch budget exhausted; Google Maps and third-party search engines unreachable via WebFetch), so nothing could be independently re-verified today. No fields changed. |
| 2026-07-08 | Added Licensing & Credentials (methodology v1.1): clinic licence and dentists/their licence numbers. |
| 2026-07-04 | Initial data collection. |
