"Public roll" is the Colegio de Cirujanos Dentistas de Costa Rica's own register, searched by name. A row is filled only when exactly one registered dentist matches every part of the name the clinic prints; status and specialty are the Colegio's words. Search the roll yourself.

A number shown on a clinic's site is a claim until it is looked up. Costa Rican dentists must be incorporated in the Colegio de Cirujanos Dentistas, whose public roll is searchable by name or code and shows each dentist's status and registered specialty. Physicians are listed by the Colegio de Médicos y Cirujanos. Colegio de Cirujanos Dentistas de Costa Rica.

Accreditation and membership claims

Claims as the clinic states them, with where each can be checked. A logo on a website is not a listing in an accreditor's register.

PROMED / Cámara Costarricense de la Salud (industry association)
Dr. Garita 'active member of the Costa Rican Health Chamber and PROMED'; no member number
Claimed on the clinic's site.
How to check: the PROMED domain now leads to the Cámara Costarricense de la Salud, a dues-paying trade chamber whose member directory is public; membership is not a license or an accreditation at PROMED / Cámara Costarricense de la Salud (industry association).
