Change History
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| 2026-10-05 | Read the clinic's Google listing on 2026-10-05 in 2 review orders (10 distinct reviews, dated 2024-11-02 to 2026-09-26; 4.9 from 132): recurring complaints false; suspicious review patterns false. |
| 2026-10-02 | Read the clinic's website HTML on 2026-10-02: structured data: present. |
| 2026-10-02 | Other review platforms corrected to none: the Yelp page under its name is unclaimed, has no reviews and is not linked from the clinic's site, and it has no page on RateMDs, WhatClinic or Dental Departures (checked 2026-10-02). |
| 2026-10-02 | TripAdvisor checked on 2026-10-02: no listing for the clinic. |
| 2026-10-01 | Corrected on 2026-10-01: the clinic has its own Yelp page at its address (no reviews yet), so it is present on other review platforms. |
| 2026-10-01 | Review platforms re-checked: no profile of the clinic on WhatClinic, RateMDs, Opencare or Trustpilot, so "reviewed on other platforms" changed from yes to no. |
| 2026-09-29 | Corrected 2026-09-29: owner replies to reviews confirmed on the Google listing (owner reply dated 2026-09-28). |
| 2026-08-26 | Review-list check 2026-08-26: contacts.facebook (https://www.facebook.com/people/Walkin-Family-Dentistry) flagged rotten (HTTP 404) — the stored URL was missing the numeric page ID that Facebook 'people/' profile URLs require. Fetched the clinic's own site https://walkinfamilydental.ca/ and found the full Facebook link in its navigation/footer: https://www.facebook.com/people/Walkin-Family-Dentistry/61563757857811/. Fetched that URL directly and it resolves to a page titled 'Walk in Family Dentistry | Toronto ON', matching the clinic. Updated contacts.facebook to the complete URL. |
| 2026-08-26 | License verification 2026-08-26 against RCDSO: all 3 named doctors matched a single, unambiguous RCDSO Member record, each at a registry primary-practice address different from Walk In Family Dentistry. Dr. Farokh-Siar's record shows a conditions/complaints flag on the RCDSO register. |
| 2026-08-25 | Re-verification 2026-08-25: confirmed website live, name/address/phone unchanged, not permanently closed. Newly captured Google rating 4.9 (127 reviews), Maps place URL and pin coordinates (previously unset). |
