Reputation & Reviews
15 / 20
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.
| ◐ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-05: 56 five-star, 11 four-star, 3 three-star, 1 two-star, 0 one-star. The buckets sum to 71, matching the 71 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 4.718 reproduces the published 4.7. [gmp1] | 5/6 |
| ◐ | Google review volume Read live on 2026-09-05 from the place-page header; the star histogram sums to the same figure. [gmp1] | 1.5/3 |
| ◐ | Review recency The newest review visible is 9 months old, which proves the within-a-year bucket and no better. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 1.5/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews Owner replied to two of the three visible reviews. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No repeated complaint theme appears in the visible sample. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram shape, spread of wording and dates, and reviewer-account variety show no sign of manipulation. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page in its own relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Active Facebook presence The clinic's own Facebook page (its phone is the clinic's WhatsApp number) is active: latest post 2026-10-01, 2 reviews (checked 2026-10-02). [newshorn-dental-kumasi-fb] | 1/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence Not found by TripAdvisor's own search; no TripAdvisor link on the clinic's site [newshorn-dental-kumasi-deepen-8] [newshorn-dental-kumasi-deepen-9] | 0/0.5 |
| ✗ | Other review platforms No TripAdvisor profile and no review-platform link on the clinic's site (WhatClinic lists no Kumasi practices, so it is not counted) [newshorn-dental-kumasi-deepen-8] [newshorn-dental-kumasi-deepen-9] | 0/0.5 |

Licensing & Credentials
Whether the clinic publishes its operating licence and the dentists working there together with their professional licence numbers. A verified “not published” is recorded as a red flag; data we have not checked yet is shown as unverified and carries no penalty.
Clinic operating licence: HeFRA-licensed facility: “NEWSHORN DENTAL CONSULT LIMITED”, dental clinic, Ashanti / Kumasi Metropolitan, Adum, private (register entry 190). (From the HeFRA list of facilities with a valid licence, snapshot of 10 October 2025; the licence term recorded there ran to 28 February 2026 and has since lapsed. HeFRA has published no newer list, so the current status is unknown.) [reg2]
