Last verified June 2026. Data sourced from published clinic websites, NZAPS register and MCNZ register.

How we rank — and why we don't say "best"

The ASA Therapeutic & Health Advertising Code prohibits unsourced superlatives like "best surgeon" or "leading clinic". Instead we publish the sort criteria:

  • Published Google review count (log-scaled). Each clinic's review count is run through log10(reviews + 1) so a clinic with 200 reviews doesn't bury one with 50. We use review count, not rating — NZ medical clinics cluster 4.5–5.0 stars, so count better reflects sustained patient volume.
  • Verified MCNZ registration adds a +1 bonus. Cross-checked against the Medical Council of NZ register.
  • NZAPS register listing adds a +0.5 bonus. The NZAPS Find-a-Surgeon register is the NZ-canonical list of FRACS plastic surgeons.
  • Final order: log10(reviews + 1) + (verified ? 1 : 0) + (NZAPS-listed ? 0.5 : 0).

Compare 2–3 clinics in person before deciding. Fit is about specialist-patient match, not absolute "best".
