Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.

Summary
Halasan Dental Clinic is a two-branch private dental practice in Davao City led by Dr. Ruel John Halasan, who passed the Philippine Dental Board Examination. The San Pedro Street branch is the main clinic; a second branch operates on Quimpo Boulevard. The English-language website lists services spanning general, aesthetic, prosthodontic, endodontic, and surgical dentistry, including dental implants, and the clinic is described in multiple directory sources as PhilHealth-accredited. No published price list was found on the official site.
The clinic email on the contact page is [email protected] (missing an 'a'), while the domain is halasandentalclinic.com. The branch phone for Quimpo is (082) 235-7058; both branches share mobile 09177009053 and the same email. Reviews on the official site are undated and lack numerical ratings; its Google listing shows 5.0 from 3 reviews (read 2026-10-01). ClinicFinderPH lists a different address (Quirino Ave.) and phone ((082) 297-3145) that could not be corroborated by the clinic's own website or other directory sources, and were not used. PhilHealth accreditation is referenced in multiple secondary sources but the accreditation number was not published on the clinic's own website and the PhilHealth PDF lists were inaccessible during this check.

Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-02 | Online presence checked 2026-10-02: Hospital Examiner listing found at the clinic address. |
| 2026-10-01 | TripAdvisor re-checked 2026-10-01: its own search returns no profile for the clinic. |
| 2026-10-01 | Reviews on other platforms re-checked: no profile on WhatClinic or Dental Departures, and the Yelp listing could not be opened, so this is now marked unknown. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: no recurring complaints now unverified: 3 Google reviews are too few to show a pattern. |
| 2026-09-25 | Re-read on 2026-09-25: the clinic's website (all 21 pages and 33 blog posts listed in its sitemap, including services, clinic tour and appointment pages) and its Google listing. Recorded: no prices published for cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants or X-rays, with pages directing patients to contact the clinic for pricing; an appointment form with a preferred-days field; a team photo taken at the clinic's reception; orthodontic brackets presented on a dedicated page; no emergency category; no WhatsApp link. Still unverified: on-site X-ray/CBCT, the consultation fee (a blog post mentions free consultations while a service page asks patients to enquire), children's dentistry, and whether the clinic responds to reviews (the Google listing carries only 3 reviews, too few to score). |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website, address (both branches), phone unchanged; not permanently closed. Captured first Google rating 5.0 (3 reviews, small sample) and geo coordinates for the main branch. |
| 2026-08-25 | Removed manual red flag(s) no_clinic_license, no_doctor_credentials: they asserted unpublished licensing while the underlying data was unverified (null means "not checked", not "not published"). See methodology v1.3.0. |
| 2026-08-18 | Imported from the city-tier dataset. |
