Choosing the Right Circumcision Technique for Your New Baby: A Guide
When it comes to choosing a circumcision technique for your new baby, you may find yourself overwhelmed by options. These include the Gomco, Plastibell, Mogen shield and sleeve-resection.
However, as my friend Dr. David Bolnick explains in his excellent book, The Surgical Guide to Circumcision, each method has been successfully used millions of times, and experienced practitioners can achieve excellent results with any of them.
Discussing these options with a healthcare professional **who is skilled and whom you trust* is crucial to making an informed decision that is right for your family.
Finding the Right Practitioner: The comfort and safety of your baby are paramount. Selecting a practitioner isn’t just about their technique—it’s also about their approach to care. Ensure you choose someone with whom you feel comfortable and who is transparent about the procedure and aftercare.
