Every physician must utilize a website in order market their practice, however there are certain guidelines that must be followed by your professional website designer.  When creating your website, there are certain rules and regulations that must be adhered to.  Here are the 5 basic rules when creating a website that are not only effective, but have legal implications.

1.    You must use an advertising medium that is available to any other practicing physician.  This rule was created to ensure fairness, and a website easily complies with this rule.

2.    Every piece of information on your website must not be false or misleading.  This rule exists so patients will not be a victim of fraud or any type of deception.  This means that you must make sure that your website designer double checks to make sure that your information is 100% accurate.  This ranges from your biographical information to services availability and the rates that apply.

3.    Information cannot have superlative statements such as testimonials or comparative statements.  This rule was created to ensure that no physician falls prey to exaggeration or misleading statements.  It also makes sure that your practice remains a trusted source of information.

4.    Any advertisements on your website cannot reference any specific drug or piece of equipment.

5.    This 5th rule goes hand in hand with rule number 4.  Any physician advertisement can not be associated with products and services.  This essentially ensures that your practice adheres to its humanitarian principles.
