Rank #6 of 23 ranked clinics · last checked 17 September 2026
- Specialist-led
Summary
Specialist aesthetic-surgery hospital marketed primarily in English to international patients. One of the surgeons named on the site's team page is matched by name and by certificate number in the Ho Chi Minh City practitioner register with a current scope covering plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery. The facility and its operating company are matched in the city facility register and the national business-registration portal; the register's facility-level responsible-physician field names a different, dermatology/ENT-scoped practitioner not identified on the site.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M1 | Specialist certification of the responsible physician Found, status current; the registered specialty matches what this physician advertises. HCMC practitioner register: one of the site's named surgeons (Phùng Mạnh Cường) holds an active certificate with a scope covering plastic, reconstructive and aesthetic surgery; two other named surgeons are found with active certificates in general surgery, which does not qualify on its own. The facility register separately names a different responsible physician with an ENT scope who is not identified anywhere on the site. [cchn] |
OFF | 26 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M2 | Identifiability of the responsible physician Physician(s) named with role and tied to this address. Team of named surgeons with role ("surgeon"), tied to this hospital; most are shown under Western first-name aliases alongside their Vietnamese legal names. [site] |
SEC | 16 | 2026-08-30 | |
| 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 search (Phùng Mạnh Cường) in the practitioner register; the site does not itself publish this surgeon's certificate number. [cchn] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M4 | Facility registration Record found: name, address and status match. Facility register: licence 290/BYT-GPHĐ, status Đang hoạt động, address matches. [facility] |
OFF | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M5 | Legal-entity traceability The legal entity and its registration number are published by the clinic and matched in the register. National business-registration portal: tax code 0315827315 matched to Công ty Cổ phần Bệnh viện Thẩm mỹ GangWhoo, registered seat 576-578 Cộng Hòa matches this address. [legal] |
OFF | 8 | 2026-08-30 | |
| M6 | Self-disclosure of identifiers Physician numbers published; facility or legal-entity numbers not. Publishes its business-registration certificate number and its medical operating-licence number; individual physicians' certificate numbers are not published on the site. [site] |
SEC | 10 | 2026-08-30 | |
| 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. Lexicon scan on 2026-09-17 of the English home page and the "About" page: a repeated pattern of unattributed superlatives in the welcome block — the quoted line together with "International certificates" and "Long-term warranty", neither with an issuer or a term. The quoted statement is about staff qualification, not an outcome or safety guarantee, and the footer carries a disclaimer that the final result may vary between individuals.

SEC | 12 | 2026-09-17 | |
| M8 | Cross-locale consistency Could not verify — no points, counts against coverage, not a negative finding. Reason: Single language front. Last attempt: clinic_site, 20 September 2026 — language links found (zh:404) but no distinct second front The clinic site publishes one language front; nothing to compare. |
? | ? | 5 | 2026-09-17 |
| M9 | Patient documents None. Pages loaded on 2026-09-17 (en): home and "About". None of the five patient-document classes is published: the footer links labelled "WARRANTY POLICY", "PRIVACY POLICY" and "TERMS OF SERVICES" all resolve to "#" and open no page. [site-home] |

Who is responsible

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.
