Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-09-24 | Re-read on 2026-09-24: the clinic's website (office, team, services, appointment, contact and technology pages) and its Google listing (all review sorts). Recorded: genuine team/office photos, digital X-ray and CT-scan-based implant planning, surgical extractions and implants, no WhatsApp/LINE contact, weekday-only hours, no business-entity structured data, no TripAdvisor listing. Google rating 4.8 from 232 reviews, newest 2026-09-17, with an owner reply on 2026-09-11; recurring reviews cite insurance/billing handling and appointment wait times; no signs of review manipulation. Still unverified: pediatric care, experience with foreign patients, and whether a pre-visit consultation with a treatment estimate can be requested online. |
| 2026-09-07 | opaque_prices flag removed under methodology v1.4.0 (no evidence of bait/opacity; non-publication is scored by price criteria). |
| 2026-08-26 | Deepen 2026-08-26: rechecked website (live; address/phone confirmed on brickelldentalassociates.com). IMPORTANT: confirmed via Google Maps that this clinic's business-profile listing is titled 'Dr. Jose Delgado, DDS' (address #920, phone 305-372-8212, website brickelldentalassociates.com all match exactly) -- rating 4.8/221 reviews as of 2026-08-26, resolving prior 'ratings could not be attributed reliably' note. Attempted to re-verify the stored Yelp source (yelp.com/biz/brickell-dental-associates-miami) but it now redirects to a DIFFERENT, unrelated business ('Brickell Dental And Aesthetics', Suite 1020, owner Dr. Melissa Q., 2.6/5 rating with many billing complaints) -- confirmed this is NOT the same clinic (different suite, different owner name) and did NOT use it as a source; this corroborates the existing 'multiple similarly named Brickell practices' red flag and is a caution for future researchers not to conflate the two. No sedation/GA mention on brickelldentalassociates.com -- recorded null in sedation file. Visibility scout: 'emergency' mention from 2026-07-12 not reproduced today (recorded false per fresh scout). No uncited existing sources found; nothing to prune. |
| 2026-08-25 | License verification 2026-08-25 against Florida Dept. of Health Board of Dentistry: Dr. Jose Delgado found Clear/Active with license address matching the clinic exactly; the single-surname 'Dr. Tarantola' could not be reliably matched to the one statewide Tarantola record (different city, no first name given) so left null; clinicLicense null (no separate FL facility license for general dental offices). |
