Understanding Circumcision: A Comprehensive Guide by Atlanta Baby Circumcision
Welcome to Atlanta Baby Circumcision, where Rabbi Elchanan Schulgasser is dedicated to providing a safe, efficient, and comfortable circumcision experience for newborns. As a certified practicing mohel since 2012, Rabbi Schulgasser has performed circumcisions for countless families across nearly 20 states, delivering Personalised care and attention to each client.
The Mogen Technique: Ensuring Precision and Aesthetics
At Atlanta Baby Circumcision, we employ the Mogen technique, known for its quick, precise, and aesthetically pleasing results. This method ensures a safe and efficient circumcision, leaving a desirable appearance. Curious about the procedure? Watch an animation video that walks you through what to expect.
Procedure Duration and Setting
Concerned about the duration of the circumcision? Fear not! The procedure takes a mere two minutes. We create a sterile environment by placing your baby on a soft blanket, ensuring a quick, hygienic process. Most importantly, within five minutes of completion, including a diaper change, marking the area, bandaging, and a final check, you can hold your baby again.
Worried about where the procedure takes place? We perform circumcisions for newborns almost everywhere, including your home or ours in Atlanta. This flexibility ensures that your baby is in a comfortable and familiar environment.
Ideal Age for Circumcision
Choosing the right time for newborn circumcision is crucial. While we recommend the procedure within the first month of a baby’s life, the second or third month is also acceptable. This flexibility allows parents to make decisions that align with their preferences and circumstances.
Tailoring Circumcision to Your Convenience
At Atlanta Baby Circumcision, we understand that every family has its own schedule. We can perform circumcisions on day 8 after birth if requested, or on other days convenient for your family. This flexibility ensures that you can plan the procedure at a time that suits you best.
Post-Circumcision Support and Pain Relief
Concerned about your baby’s comfort after the procedure? We’ve got you covered. We recommend applying an over-the-counter 4% lidocaine cream, such as Aspercreme, 60 minutes before the appointment. Additionally, we suggest Infant Tylenol, though it’s at your discretion. Our quick procedure usually doesn’t require injections to numb the baby, but we’re open to it upon parental request.
Transparent Pricing and Payment Options
Wondering about the cost? Our fee for baby circumcision is $500 at our Atlanta location. If we visit you at your home, there is a travel surcharge of $3/mile each way. We believe in transparent and competitive pricing, striving to keep our services as affordable as possible. While we don’t accept insurance for infant circumcision, we can provide you with a receipt for billing purposes. Families with Medicaid or PeachCare can benefit from our discounted rates.
Ensuring Safety During the Circumcision
Safety is our top priority. We don’t use straps during circumcisions. Instead, a parent, usually mom or dad, gently holds the baby on a soft blanket covered by a sterile field. This approach ensures a safe and comforting environment for the baby.
Beyond the First Month: Additional Considerations
While early circumcision is recommended, the procedure can be performed in the second or third month. We provide the same level of care and precision for home circumcisions as in a hospital setting, ensuring the safety and well-being of your baby.

Rabbi Schulgasser performed the most perfect circumcision for our beautiful baby boy! It healed amazingly and our Pediatrician confirmed that it looked great!
What I appreciated the most about the circumcision is throughout the entire experience, Rabbi Schulgasser answered ALL of our questions or concerns before the baby came and after. We were new to the area and as first time clients, my husband and I were nervous about the procedure. But the Rabbi instantly made us feel at ease the entire day of the circumcision. When we first met he explained every detail and he helped us feel included in the process. After the procedure, he helped us calm baby down, gave us materials for the baby's care with printed instructions and he gave us time to lovingly comfort our child. In addition, he made himself available over the phone to answer any questions that came up once we were home.
My husband and I are so, so grateful for Rabbi Schulgasser for his skill, expertise and care! We thank him for everything and we HIGHLY recommend his services 😀 -
We are very thankful to have found Rabbi Schulgasser. He’s very calm and was extremely thorough in explaining the process beforehand. He did a fantastic job. We also greatly appreciated his aftercare in asking how our son was doing throughout the following week. Highly recommend!
