Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-16 | Dentist names reassessed on 2026-10-16 under the clarified rule (methodology 1.4.2): a name counts when it lets a patient find the dentist in a professional register. The clinic names its dentists by first name only, so dentist names no longer count. |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-02 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): no sign of manipulated reviews. |
| 2026-10-02 | Online presence checked 2026-10-02: no TripAdvisor listing found. |
| 2026-10-02 | Other review platforms re-checked on 2026-10-02: the SeekClinic page it rested on shows the clinic's Google reviews and rating rather than reviews of its own, and no profile for Dahlia Dental Care was found on WhatClinic, Dental Departures, Bookimed, MyMediTravel, Erufu Care, Hospital Examiner or Hotfrog; "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: review recency within 3 months (newest review dated 2026-09-25); owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-25). |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, address and phone unchanged, clinic operating normally. Captured first Google rating/review data: 4.9 stars, 197 reviews, plus map coordinates. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against Malaysian Dental Council register (mhps.moh.gov.my): clinic premise confirmed as genuinely MDC-registered (10 dentists); named doctor Dr. Munirah matched; no distinct clinic license number is published. |
| 2026-08-18 | Imported from the city-tier dataset. |
