General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation

Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Checked 2026-10-02: active Facebook page confirmed. |
| 2026-10-01 | Re-read the clinic's Facebook page and Google listing and searched TripAdvisor, WhatClinic and Yandex Maps on 2026-10-01: services now rest on a services post on its Facebook page; presence on other review platforms corrected to none found; opening hours reset to unassessed, as neither channel gives them and the earlier value rested on search results. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: published prices and the cleaning, filling, crown, implant, consultation and X-ray prices now unverified: the clinic has no website and its social page was not checked for this. |
| 2026-09-17 | Re-read on 2026-09-17: this public dental centre still has no official website, so its Google Business Profile was read in full. Recorded: a genuine building photo on the Google listing; the listing is unclaimed, so it cannot respond to reviews; no prices are published on any of the clinic's public channels. The review histogram is heavily skewed toward one-star ratings (62% of 21 reviews) rather than toward five stars, so there is no sign of review manipulation; the readable low-rated reviews cover different complaints (a surgeon's fee, a language-accommodation issue) rather than one repeated theme, so no confirmed recurring-complaint pattern was recorded. Still unverified: equipment, services beyond what earlier vacancy notices documented, communication channels, and whether the clinic works with international patients. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: no website found (unchanged); address (Strada Ștefan cel Mare 54, Bălți) and phone (+373 231 20 479) confirmed exactly against Google's listing. Note: on Google this business is listed under a generic category name ("Stomatologicheskiy tsentr.", Russian for "Dental centre.") rather than its official IMSP name — same address/phone, so treated as the same clinic. Google Maps browsing (google.com/maps/...) hit a persistent Google bot-detection page on the shared browser for this and later clinics today; rating/review data were instead confirmed via Google Search's business panel (a live page opened today) and the CID URL above, extracted from that panel's own directions link. Coordinates could not be obtained via this method and are left out. |
