General Anaesthesia & Deep Sedation
Whether the clinic documents treatment under general anaesthesia or deep / twilight sedation — "sleep dentistry", where the patient is asleep and unaware (does not feel, see, or hear the procedure). Ordinary conscious sedation, where the patient stays awake and responsive, does not count here. This is informational and does not affect the transparency score.
- ✓ General anaesthesia / deep sedation (sleep dentistry) — General anaesthesia / deep sedation documented The Children's Dentistry page says the practice offers sedation or general anaesthesia for specific procedures when needed; it does not say at which site.

Summary
The own-premises clinic of Prof. Dr. Navid Rashid Qureshi, consultant dental and maxillofacial surgeon and principal of Liaquat College of Medicine and Dentistry, in Block 6 of Gulshan-e-Iqbal.

Six dentists are named for that site with their roles, from an orthodontist and an oral surgeon to associate dental surgeons and a practice manager. The clinic runs treatment and dental-problem pages, a dedicated emergency page and a female-dentist page. No prices are published.

Price Transparency
0 / 15
Whether patients can estimate costs before visiting. Published price ranges count; exact prices are not required.
| ✗ | Prices or price ranges published No fee list on the clinic's pages read 2026-09-23; a /pricing/ page left over from the site template shows placeholder US-dollar plans, not the clinic's fees. [s1] [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-5] | 0/3 |

Reputation & Reviews
16.5 / 20
Public review signals. The Google rating is adjusted with a Bayesian prior (rating 4.0, weight 25) so a 5.0 from a handful of reviews does not outrank a 4.8 from hundreds.
| ✓ | Google rating (Bayesian-adjusted) as of 2026-09-23 [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-3] | 6/6 |

| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews The owner replies to reviews on Google: 4 of the 10 reviews read carry an owner reply, 4 of them to reviews from the last 12 months; the latest reply is dated 2026-08-31 (to a review of 2026-08-25). [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-10] [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-3] | 2/2 |
| ✗ | No recurring complaints Three of the five lowest-rated Google reviews concern the clinic being money-driven and inflating the bill (2025-07, 2026-04 and 2026-05); 1–2★ are 2.5 % of 199 (1★ 5 / 2★ 0 / 3★ 1 / 4★ 4 / 5★ 189). [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-10] [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-3] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns The 10 Google reviews read (dated 2024-10-08 to 2026-10-04, from accounts with 1–9 reviews) show no burst of five-star reviews and no repeated opening wording; star histogram 1★ 5 / 2★ 0 / 3★ 1 / 4★ 4 / 5★ 189.

| ✓ | Other review platforms Listed on oladoc.com, a Pakistani booking directory with patient reviews; profile live on 2026-09-23. [dir1] | 0.5/0.5 |
Medical Infrastructure
11 / 15
The range of publicly documented equipment and services. This measures documented availability, not clinical quality.
| ✓ | On-site X-ray The clinic publishes a Digital Xrays page and takes intraoral X-rays at children's check-ups when needed. [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-7] [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-8] | 2/2 |
| ? | CBCT (3D imaging) No cone-beam CT is mentioned on the clinic's own pages; not enough to record a negative. [s1] | 0/2 |
| ✓ | Implantology Dental implants, sinus uplift and bone grafting are listed among the Gulshan-e-Iqbal services. [s2] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | Orthodontics Braces and aligners are listed, and an orthodontist (BDS, FCPS Ortho) is on the Gulshan-e-Iqbal roster. [s2] [nrq-dental-medical-center-gulshan-e-iqbal-deepen-2] | 2/2 |

| ✓ | Emergency care Dedicated Dental Emergency page describing its emergency dental care and what to do in common emergencies. [s4] | 1.5/1.5 |
| ? | Works with international patients Re-read on 2026-09-10: the only mention of overseas or international treatment anywhere on the clinic's own pages sits inside an embedded patient testimonial ("I am from South Africa ... NRQ provides international standard of dental treatment"). A review quoted on the clinic's website is not the clinic documenting experience with foreign patients, so this is recorded as unverified rather than met. [s1] | 0/2 |
Communication & Service
8.5 / 10
How easy it is to contact the clinic, get answers, and book - especially for international patients.
| ✓ | WhatsApp / LINE available Every page says "Call or WhatsApp"; the WhatsApp button includes a Gulshan-e-Iqbal Dental Clinic account on +92 328 2940402. [s1] | 2/2 |

| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-13 | Visibility re-checked on 2026-10-13 with the five canonical Karachi queries, read once for every clinic of the Karachi list; AI Overviews, local results and the first page of web results all counted. The clinic appears in 4 of the five. |
| 2026-10-05 | TripAdvisor presence checked on 2026-10-05: no listing found for this clinic. |
| 2026-10-05 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 (its lowest-rated and newest reviews with the star histogram): a repeated complaint among the lowest-rated reviews; no sign of manipulated reviews. |
| 2026-09-23 | Visibility re-checked on 2026-09-23 with the five canonical Karachi queries, run once for every card compared in this pass; local results, the first page of web results and AI Overviews all counted. The clinic appears in 3 of the five. |
| 2026-09-23 | Re-read on 2026-09-23: the clinic's website (about 250 pages in its site map, including the Gulshan-e-Iqbal team, contact, children's, emergency and dentist profile pages), its Google listing, its oladoc.com profile and the national dentists' register. Recorded: Google 4.9 from 190 reviews, newest readable review 2026-08-25, owner replies on all readable reviews; a WhatsApp number for this branch; sedation or general anaesthesia offered to children when needed; registration 23038-D for the oral surgeon, whom the clinic's own profile names Dr. Ahmer Javaid Khan. Corrected: the site carries no business markup with an address or telephone, so structured data is not met; the review-pattern check is left open because nearly all ratings are five or one star and the low ones cannot be read. Still unverified: TripAdvisor presence, cone-beam CT, work with foreign patients and the Sindh Healthcare Commission licence. |
| 2026-09-11 | Reputation review: the clinic's own Google listing was read again, this time with its star histogram, its reviews with exact dates and any replies from the practice, its published opening week and its photographs, which were downloaded at full size and looked at. On this card the review count was corrected from 186 to 188 against the listing's own star histogram; the age of the newest readable review was dated exactly and recorded; the practice was found to answer reviews on its own listing; the star distribution and the readable reviews were checked for signs of manipulation and none was found; the photographs on the clinic's listing were downloaded and looked at, and they show the premises; the opening week published in the clinic's own Google Business Profile was read and the hours criterion settled on it. |
| 2026-09-10 | Initial data collection: the clinic's own front, about, Gulshan-e-Iqbal roster and emergency pages were read; the Google place record for the Gulshan-e-Iqbal centre was read automatically; all six named dentists were looked up in the PMDC practitioners register, three of them under several spellings; the Sindh Healthcare Commission's 2025-05-21 snapshot was searched by clinic name, founder name and address. Review-side fields, the premises-photograph field and the opening week were left unset with reasons and queued for a manual browser check. |
