Advertising rules in Wisconsin
False, misleading or deceptive advertising is unprofessional conduct — and Wisconsin pairs it with a rule aimed squarely at soliciting people who are in no position to refuse.
Engaging in FALSE, MISLEADING, OR DECEPTIVE ADVERTISING is listed as unprofessional conduct under the dishonesty-and-character heading, alongside fraud in obtaining or renewing a license — which is the company Wisconsin considers a misleading advertisement to keep.
Wis. Admin. Code Med § 10.03(1)(k) · verified Sep 2, 2026
⚠️ AND UNINVITED SOLICITATION OF VULNERABLE PEOPLE IS ITS OWN GROUND. Engaging in UNINVITED IN-PERSON SOLICITATION of actual or potential patients who, BECAUSE OF THEIR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, MAY BE VULNERABLE TO UNDUE INFLUENCE is separately unprofessional conduct. The test is the patient’s circumstances, not the truthfulness of what was said to them.
