• VALIDATION PHASE: We're testing our verification system with the Founding 10 Program.

How Our Verification Works

WHAT “VERIFIED” MEANS

✓ Clinic submitted documents from COFEPRIS (Mexico’s federal health authority)
✓ Professional licenses verified in SEP public system
✓ Current professional liability insurance confirmed
✓ Legal medical waste handling contract verified
✓ Council Dental Advisors reviewed the clinic
✓ Documentation verified at time of listing

WHAT WE DON’T VERIFY

✗ Quality of dental work (only documents)
✗ Patient satisfaction or treatment outcomes
✗ Daily operations or real-time compliance
✗ Future performance after verification date
✗ Continuous monitoring (only annual re-verification)

OUR ROLE

WE ARE:
• A dental clinic directory platform in validation phase
• A verification service that confirms Mexican clinics have required documentation
• A bridge of trust between legal Mexican clinics and US/Canadian patients

WE ARE NOT:
• A health authority (we are not COFEPRIS)
• Official certifiers or regulators
• A registered company (yet – validation phase)
• Medical service providers

LEVEL 2: Council Dental Advisors (Professional)

• Provide professional opinions on clinics
• Assess professional standards and reputation
• Timeline: 2-5 business days

TRANSPARENCY

We’re in validation phase testing if our verification model works. We’re a small team trying to solve a real problem transparently. We might fail – that’s the startup risk. We’re being completely honest about where we are.
