Anesthésie générale & sédation profonde

Indique si la clinique documente des soins sous anesthésie générale ou sédation profonde / crépusculaire — la « dentisterie sous sommeil », où le patient dort et n'a conscience de rien (il ne sent, ne voit et n'entend pas l'intervention). La sédation consciente ordinaire, où le patient reste éveillé et réactif, ne compte pas ici. Information indicative, sans effet sur le score de transparence.

  • ✗ Anesthésie générale / sédation profonde (dentisterie sous sommeil) — Aucune anesthésie générale ni sédation profonde documentée The clinic publishes sedation dentistry with oral sedation only. Methodology 1.4.0 counts general anaesthesia or deep intravenous / twilight sedation and excludes ordinary conscious sedation, so no qualifying level is documented on the clinic channel. [s1]

Résumé

Transparence de l'information

20 / 20

Indique si les faits de base concernant la clinique — son équipe, ses locaux, ses services et sa localisation — sont vérifiables publiquement.

✓ Dispose d'un site web fonctionnel Read live on 2026-09-07: full service tree, team pages, financial policy and a large blog. [s1] 4/4
✓ Noms des dentistes publiés Dr. Farahnaz Alavi has her own team-member page; the rest of the published team are assistants and front-desk staff, named by first name only. [s1] [s2] 3/3
✓ Spécialisations des dentistes indiquées The dentist page states her qualifications and areas of practice. [s2] 2/2
✓ Photos réelles de la clinique Confirmed on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08: the lead owner photograph is the practice's own waiting room at 1262 W Broadway — its cream tub chairs, marble floor and street window — so the existing value is evidenced rather than inferred. [s1] [gmpb] 2/2
✓ Liste des services publiée A full service tree from general and preventive dentistry to implants, oral surgery and sedation. [s1] 3/3
✓ Coordonnées claires Phone, e-mail (info@hemlockdentalclinic.com), address and hours published site-wide, plus a separate emergency-contact page. [s1] [s3] 2/2
✓ Version anglaise du site web [s1] 2/2
✓ Adresse et carte publiées Street address in the footer with an embedded map, and a matching Google place. [s1] [g1] 2/2

Transparence des prix

6 / 15

Indique si les patients peuvent estimer les coûts avant leur visite. Les fourchettes de prix publiées comptent ; des prix exacts ne sont pas exigés.

✗ Prix ou fourchettes de prix publiés The clinic publishes exactly two priced bundles for uninsured patients ($50 for a specific-concern exam with one X-ray, $299 for a cleaning with exam). That is below the bar of a standing fee list or ranges for at least three services, so the criterion stays false even though individual priced items exist. [s1] [s4] 0/3
✓ Prix du détartrage indiqué A cleaning with exam is published at $299 for patients without insurance, repeated in the site-wide banner and on the financial-policy page. [s1] 2/2
✗ Prix des obturations indiqué [s1] [s4] 0/2
✗ Prix des couronnes indiqué [s1] [s4] 0/2
✗ Prix des implants indiqué The clinic's implant cost guide publishes market ranges for the city ("most single implants in Vancouver fall between $2,500 and $5,500", full-arch "$20,000-$30,000 per arch") rather than its own fee, so it is not the clinic's published price. [s5] 0/2
✓ Prix de la consultation indiqué A specific-concern examination with one X-ray is published at $50 for patients without insurance. [s1] 2/2
✓ Prix des radiographies / de l'imagerie indiqué The same $50 bundle names one X-ray as part of what is priced. [s1] 2/2

Réputation et avis

19 / 20

Signaux d'avis publics. La note Google est ajustée avec un a priori bayésien (note 4,0, poids 25) afin qu'un 5,0 issu d'une poignée d'avis ne surclasse pas un 4,8 issu de centaines d'avis.

✓ Note Google (ajustement bayésien) Read live on the place page in a browser on 2026-09-08. Unchanged from the automated reading of 2026-09-07. The star histogram — 382 five-star, 0 four-star, 0 three-star, 0 two-star and 6 one-star — sums to 388, matching the 388 in the place-page header exactly, and its weighted mean 4.938 reproduces the published 4.9. [g1] [gmpb] 6/6
◐ Volume d'avis Google Read live on 2026-09-08 from the place-page header, and the star histogram sums to the same figure. The card held 389 and the listing has lost 1 since, which Google does when it removes reviews. [g1] [gmpb] 2.5/3
✓ Fraîcheur des avis The newest review visible is one month old, which proves the within_3_months bucket and no better. Visible dates: 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 4 and 4 months, then 1 year. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] 3/3
✓ La clinique répond aux avis The owner answers all eight of the reviews visible on the place page on 2026-09-08. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] 2/2
✓ Absence de plaintes récurrentes Google's relevance ordering surfaces eight five-star accounts and no critical text at all, so nothing readable establishes a theme and the criterion is false with the unread mass stated: the one- and two-star share is 6 of 388 = 1.5 %, the lowest negative share of any Vancouver card, and those six accounts could not be read. Sample: the eight reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available, so a review more recent than the newest one visible may exist. [gmpb] 2/2
✓ Absence de schémas d'avis suspects Judged on the histogram shape, the spread of dates, the variety of reviewers and the wording, on 2026-09-08. The distribution is strictly two-valued — 382 five-star and 6 one-star, with nothing at four, three or two — and that is disclosed rather than explained away. Against a manipulation reading: the visible dates spread across a year without clustering, the eight accounts name several different clinicians and hygienists and describe different treatments at lengths from one line to several paragraphs, and the owner answers every one of them individually rather than in a template. [gmpb] 2/2
✓ Présence Facebook active The site header links the clinic Facebook page alongside Instagram, X and YouTube. [s1] 1/1
✗ Présence sur TripAdvisor TripAdvisor's own search index was queried in a real browser on 2026-09-10, under the clinic name and again with the city appended; it carries no listing for this practice. [hemlock-dental-clinic-vancouver-deepen] 0/0.5
✓ Autres plateformes d'avis Yelp publishes a claimed business page for the practice at 1262 W Broadway, read live on 2026-09-10; it carries two patient reviews, both held back by Yelp's recommendation filter. [hemlock-dental-clinic-vancouver-deepen-2] [hemlock-dental-clinic-vancouver-deepen-3] 0.5/0.5

Infrastructure médicale

11 / 15

L'éventail des équipements et des services documentés publiquement. Cela mesure la disponibilité documentée, et non la qualité clinique.

✓ Radiographie sur place Digital X-rays are a published service. [s1] 2/2
✗ CBCT (imagerie 3D) No cone-beam CT anywhere in the service tree or the technology wording. [s1] 0/2
✓ Implantologie [s1] 2/2
✓ Orthodontie Invisalign. [s1] 2/2
✓ Chirurgie orale Oral surgery, tooth and wisdom-tooth extractions, bone grafting for implants. [s1] 2/2
✓ Dentisterie pédiatrique A pediatric dentistry branch with children's exams, fluoride, sealants and space maintainers. [s1] 1.5/1.5
✓ Soins d'urgence Emergency dental care with its own service page and a separate emergency-contact page. [s1] 1.5/1.5
✗ Accueil de patients internationaux Nothing on the site addresses international patients, foreign insurance or paperwork in another language. [s1] [s4] 0/2

Communication et service

6.5 / 10

La facilité avec laquelle on peut contacter la clinique, obtenir des réponses et prendre rendez-vous — en particulier pour les personnes ne parlant pas la langue locale.

✗ WhatsApp / LINE disponible [s1] [s3] 0/2
? Rapidité de réponse 0/1.5
✓ Anglais parlé [s1] 2.5/2.5
✓ Consultation préalable possible A booking form on the home page takes preferred day, time and the services wanted. [s1] 1.5/1.5
✓ Explications claires des services Each treatment has a plain-language page and the blog explains procedures step by step. [s1] 1/1
✓ Horaires d'ouverture pratiques Confirmed on the clinic's own Google Business Profile, read in a browser on 2026-09-08: Monday to Friday 09:30–17:30 and Saturday 09:30–16:00, Sunday closed. Saturday opening is published clearly on the clinic's own record. [s1] [gmpb] 1.5/1.5

Visibilité IA et recherche

7 / 10

Indique si la clinique est repérable lorsque les patients effectuent des recherches — y compris via les assistants IA. Vérifié avec des requêtes fixes : "best dentist Canada", "English speaking dentist Canada", "dental implants Canada", "emergency dentist Canada", "Canada dental clinic for expats".

✓ Mentionnée pour : best dentist Canada hemlockdentalclinic.com ranks fourth in the results of the canonical query. [sq1] 1/1
✗ Mentionnée pour : English speaking dentist Canada The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query, which returned at least three Vancouver, British Columbia results and is therefore on target. [sq2] 0/1
✓ Mentionnée pour : dental implants Canada hemlockdentalclinic.com ranks sixth in the results of the canonical query. [sq3] 1/1
? Mentionnée pour : emergency dentist Canada The canonical run of this query returned a page dominated by Vancouver, Washington: only one result belongs to Vancouver, British Columbia, so the SERP is off-target and absence from it is not evidence. Recorded as null rather than false. [sq4] 0/1
✗ Mentionnée pour : Canada dental clinic for expats The clinic and its domain do not appear in the results of the canonical query. [sq5] 0/1
✓ Données structurées sur le site web JSON-LD with Place, GeoCoordinates, Service, Offer and FAQPage objects. [s1] 1.5/1.5
✓ Qualité de l'indexation Google The clinic domain takes rank one and five further own pages (dentist page, landing page, contact, FAQ, service pages) in the first twenty results of the name-quoted query (web search, 2026-09-07). [giq1] 2/2
✓ Pages de services dédiées Individual pages for root canal therapy, implants, oral surgery, sedation, pediatric dentistry and more. [s1] 1.5/1.5

The Reviews tab (this URL) gives the headline rating, the review-count header, the five star-histogram buckets read whole from their accessibility labels, and the eight most-relevant reviews with their star values, dates, text and owner replies; the sibling Overview URL https://www.google.com/maps/place/x/@49.2633292,-123.1326089,17z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x548673e725d475cb:0xaa2e39df374b560b!8m2!3d49.2633292!4d-123.1326089?hl=en gives the listing name, address, telephone, website, business category, the full published opening week and the lead owner photograph. The listing opens as «Hemlock Dental Clinic», category Dentist, at 1262 W Broadway, Vancouver BC · +1 604-738-9202 · hemlockdentalclinic.com — the identifiers the card itself carries, so the place identifier resolves to this practice and not to a neighbour.2026-09-08

Queried under the clinic name alone and again with the city appended, it returns no listing for this practice; the query broadens to dental-clinic listings in other countries instead. A control query for an existing dental-clinic listing (Old Igarashi Dental Clinic, Shizuoka) returns that listing at rank 1, so the method does surface dental clinics when they are in the index. The /Search results page itself never resolves past its loading spinner for a signed-out session, which is why the search endpoint is cited.2026-09-10

Historique des modifications

DateModification
2026-09-10Checked by hand in a browser on 2026-09-10: TripAdvisor carries no listing for the practice (its own search index queried under two query forms); the Yelp business page, refused to an automated client, opens in a real browser and carries two filtered patient reviews, so onOtherPlatforms moves null to true.
2026-09-08Checked by hand in a browser: the clinic’s Google Maps place page was opened in a real browser and read on both its Reviews and Overview tabs. Recorded from it: the rating re-verified against the star histogram, the review count, the histogram itself (382/0/0/0/6 = 388, weighted mean 4.938), review recency, the owner-reply state, the complaint reading and the manipulation reading from the eight most-relevant reviews, the lead owner photograph and the full published opening week. Fields this pass did not measure are untouched.
2026-09-07Adversarial verification (no browser): all four mandatory sweeps run on the card; every cited URL re-fetched for liveness; the Google rating and coordinates re-read independently from the live place record and confirmed; the licensing block re-run against the province statutory register; TripAdvisor probed directly and found unreadable to an automated client. On this card, the platform-presence and TripAdvisor fields, which rested on search-result snippets, were returned to unchecked with the platforms that were actually opened named, and the sedation level was corrected to a checked negative because the clinic publishes oral sedation only.
2026-09-07Initial data collection (automated): clinic site read in full including the dentist page, financial policy and the implant cost guide; Google place page read automatically; the single named dentist confirmed in the BCCOHP public register; the five canonical visibility queries taken from the AI-visibility pass; index quality probed with a name-quoted search query. Reputation fields other than the rating and the count are left for a manual browser check.
