Galway Plastic Surgery
Verification pending: less of the axis weight is sourced than the threshold requires, so no score is published yet.
Status: verification pending · last checked 31 August 2026
No crown: crowns require register-verified gates, never a clinic's own claim.
Summary

Axis by axis
rubric value 1–5 · ? could not verify (no points, not a negative finding) · — not applicable: this country has no register of that class · OFF official register · SEC secondary source
| Axis | Finding (rubric anchor) | Value | Source class | Weight | Checked |

Mr. Kenneth Joyce named on the IAPS membership list (association/secondary source); the Medical Council Specialist Register itself is reCAPTCHA-gated and could not be queried, so this axis is capped at secondary provenance.

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.

| Names a responsible physician | verified yes [site-about] |
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.
