Methodology
The GCR is an organization that evaluates healthcare clinics worldwide. Those have their
own website, are mentioned in medical clinic directories or have at least 5 reviews on an
independent website.
These clinics are automatically added to the GCR Index and scored upon the publicly
available information given about each clinic.
Verified clinics have had their clinic information updated by the clinic owner or member of
staff, or have been personally inspected by a GCR representative.
Accredited clinics have been personally inspected by a GCR representative, and have had
consultation support to collect and improve on any missing or weak data.
The Global Clinic Rating employs 100's of carefully calibrated performance indicators to
provide the GCR Score for any particular clinic in the following areas:
Clinic Expertise:
This includes how long the clinic has been in existence at its current location, the clinic's
accreditations, awards and certifications, how long the doctors have worked in their chosen
medical fields and what are their medical studies and accreditations.
Clinic Facilities:
This includes both diagnostic & treatment technology available, as well as non-medical
facilities.
Clinic Services:
This includes both medical & non-medical services that the clinic provides to its patients.
Patient Feedback:
The total & average score of the clinic’s reviews across various independent websites, such
as Facebook, Google+, Yelp and medical clinic focused review sites.

About the GCR
GCR - the Global Clinic Rating supports medical clinics worldwide with a score based on
their apparent level of expertise, facilities, services and patient feedback. The GCR allows
anyone to quickly compare clinics within any regional area with a 1-5 star score, similarly as
you would compare excellent hotels or restaurants.
For Patients
Obviously, there's more to choosing the right clinic than the cost of treatment. But because
private medical care is a highly personalized interaction between the patient and medical
team and varies in degrees of complexity, it has been in the past difficult to give absolute
guidance on what constitutes a “good” medical clinic.
However, the GCR - Global Clinic Rating sets out to assist patients & local governments in
doing just that. Through the GCR clinic score, GCR rank & GCR index - patients can now see,
based on facts - exactly which are the leading clinics in their local area and abroad.
