In the models' words

Lines from the answers, verbatim apart from formatting.

My personal starting shortlist would be Near Dental Clinic–Mabolo, Affinity Dental Clinics Cebu, Cebu Dental Care Center, and Ivrie Dental Clinic—then I’d choose based on the specific dentist and procedure rather than the clinic’s star rating alone.

How Cebu was measured

Each of the 18 questions went to ChatGPT and to Gemini; 12 of them were asked twice, with the model's web search off and on. A question that itself named a clinic is left out, since its answer would name that clinic by force. The clinics we tracked are the ones we chose to measure in Cebu and the clinics they compete with for the same patients.

Ansmeter Benchmark v2.0, methodology 2026.10, prompt library 2026.10-service-voice. The method and its limits: Methodology. The table as a file: data.csv.

We ran this measurement on our own initiative; no clinic asked for it or paid for it. If a clinic's name or website is wrong here, write to us and we will correct it.
