If you do decide to circumcise your son, please consider using a Mohel to perform the procedure. A Mohel is a Rabbi trained in Jewish ritual circumcision. Mohels are much faster and better than medical doctors who perform circumcision. Most Mohels complete the circumcision in less than a minute, while many doctors take as long as 20-30 minutes.
