Authority is well-established through the NHS Foundation Trust designation in the H1. The only notable gap is the lack of structured data (schema_json was null), which prevents the site from technically asserting its institutional identity to search engines. However, the expert claims are linked to specific named trials like NOTACS, which provides a high degree of offline and online verifiable footprint. No named individuals were promoted without institutional context, reducing the risk of unverifiable guru-style authority.

There is no disconnect between claims and evidence. The hospital claims to be a leader in research, and the news feed demonstrates this by highlighting specific international trials led by the hospital. Performance claims regarding professional development are supported by the mention of courses for healthcare professionals across the world. The site demonstrates performance through its output (research and training) rather than through vague marketing promises.

Identity & Authority is read from the structured data first: whether the site declares who it is in machine-readable schema, with verifiable identity links. Below is the schema captured per page, then the external proof links that support (or fail to support) that identity.
