Methodology

How the Klar Score is built.

Google stars reward marketing volume. The Klar Score rewards verifiability. We do not invent AI-photo percentages against real practices.

1. 01

   Surgery country

   Germany +22, mixed +10, Turkey 0. A Berlin office is not a Berlin theatre.

2. 02

   Who operates

   Physician-led +16, physician + team +8, consult-only 0.

3. 03

   Societies

   VDHC +14, ISHRS +8, ABHRS +6. Only when membership is public.

4. 04

   Name and price

   Named physician +6. Published package +6. Missing data stays blank.

5. 05

   Reviews

   Stars can help. More than 1,500 reviews are penalised — volume is not proof.

6. 06

   What is excluded

   Whether the clinic pays us. Growth Seats and ads sit apart. Organic rank is not for sale.
