Abstract
The internet is an abundant and easily accessible source of current health-related information for both patients and physicians. Physicians can harness the power of the internet to keep up-to-date on developments in their field and review the literature on a regular basis. They can also help direct patients to accurate and reliable resources which are geared towards the general public. Proper guidance of patients and their families can help make the internet a valuable tool for education.
