Editorial note: Strongest entry. Both principals independently verified: Wallerstein and Cohen each have dedicated Wikipedia articles; Wallerstein confirmed in RSA Society directory; both confirmed as McGill teaching faculty. Cohen upgraded to verified=true (Wikipedia + corroborated LASIK MD President role). Chain model: specific operating surgeon varies by clinic location. Wallerstein photo URL on RSA Society (authority-body host), confidence high. No verified standalone photo for Cohen captured - left null (no invented URL).
