Kauvery Hospital — Plastic Surgery (Alwarpet)
Verification pending: less of the axis weight is sourced than the threshold requires, so no score is published yet.
Status: verification pending · last checked 29 August 2026
No crown: crowns require register-verified gates, never a clinic's own claim.
Summary
Plastic surgery department of a multi-specialty hospital chain, with four named consultant plastic surgeons at the clinic's own "Chennai - Alwarpet" listing. The operating company is found in the NABH accredited-facility register at a matching street address (Luz Church Road, Mylapore — the neighbouring locality name used in the register); the specialist-board and medical-licence registers for Tamil Nadu could not be queried.

The clinic's own doctor-listing page names this branch "Chennai - Alwarpet" while the register lists the same flagship Chennai hospital under the adjoining locality name Mylapore — treated as a match with a locality-naming discrepancy, not a full 5.
