Reputation & Reviews
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) Star histogram read live on 2026-09-05: 1424 five-star, 64 four-star, 6 three-star, 2 two-star, 18 one-star. The buckets sum to 1514, matching the 1514 in the place-page header exactly, and the weighted mean 4.898 reproduces the published 4.9. [gmp1] | 6/6 |
| ✓ | Google review volume as of 2026-09-26; previously 1514 [askthedentist-clinics-ibadan-gbp-2026-09-26] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Review recency The newest review visible is 1 month old, which proves the within-3-months bucket and no better. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 3/3 |
| ✓ | Clinic responds to reviews Owner replied to all three visible reviews, but every reply opens with the same templated sentence. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No recurring complaints No repeated complaint theme appears in the visible sample. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ✓ | No suspicious review patterns Histogram shape, spread of wording and dates, and reviewer-account variety show no sign of manipulation. Sample: the 3 reviews Google Maps renders on the place page, in Google's relevance order; a newest-first list was not available. [gmp1] | 2/2 |
| ? | Active Facebook presence The Facebook address on record shows "This content isn't available right now", so the page could not be read (checked 2026-09-05). [fbp1] | 0/1 |
| ✗ | TripAdvisor presence No TripAdvisor listing found; no TripAdvisor link on the clinic's own site [askthedentist-clinics-ibadan-deepen-5] [s1] | 0/0.5 |
