Circumcision- Where to get it done in SE

11 replies

Hi all!!

I am looking for recommendations for somewhere to get my son circumcised in the South east area - around Croydon. It's not a religious decision- I know about the pros and cons of the procedure and am well read on the whole thing.

Hop you can help!!

dont know anywhere sorry .is it on medical grounds?
my ds nearly had to have it done .

i asked about it and was told it is really hard to get it done unless for religious reasons or medical grounds. You are likely to have to get it done privately and many docs won't even do it.

good luck.

Do you have a GP? if it is for medical grounds they should refer you.

It's not for medical grounds!! Its something my husband would like done. I dont mind either way but i dont want him to be any older than he really is now. He's 3 weeks old>>>>

yes, that's why I was looking into it but my GP wouldn't progress it as there was no need and he said most urologists wouldn't touch it without medical necessity.
Sorry! Perhaps you can find a private clinic who will do it? It will likely cost you over £100 though.
