Publicidade. Internet. Ética médica. Bioética.Medical advertising is a controversial theme of worldwide relevance. The physician has the legitimate right of advertising his/her professional activities, but must preserve him/herself within the ethical limits. The importance that communication assumes in the promotion of health is clear. The internet is inserted in this conjuncture as a media used for education of the population and dissemination of medical advertising. However, the ethical commitment is being substituted by capitalist socioeconomic political interests. When the physician becomes responsible for the trivialization of medicine, it challenges the physician-patient relationship. This study assessed, in Google, advertisements of specialized medical services of the State of São Paulo in the internet, from September 2008 to July 2009.Downloads
