As noted throughout this site, selecting a physician or other medical practitioner to perform your circumcision or that of your son, is very important. You must choose a physician or other medical practioner which you are comfortable talking with, so that you can openly communicate your desire for the particular circumcision style you are seeking. It is equally important that you find a person with training and experience at performing this simple, but important procedure, using the device which you prefer and for which he/she is proficient.
An excellent resource in locating a physician in the United States and throughout the world, is the website of the American Urological Association. At this site, you will find a search tool that will allow you to select trained urologists in the country or area in which you live. Additionally, you may go to the Rites & Practices Around the World section of this web site which may contain posting about physicians and other groups who specialize in circumcision in the country you select. Or follow the links below for physicians that have been recommend in the USA and other countries.
Residents of the US or Canada shopping for a circ doctor might want to go to whatever search engine you like and enter the word PHALLOPLASTY. This will produce a fair number of home pages for doctors that do penile enhancements, but most will list circumcision among their services. They are all board certified urologists and most seem to have training in cosmetic/plastic surgery. Some even list their credentials on the web site. None will promise to use any particular technique until they have seen your dick; most have e-mail preliminary consultation clicks on their home page, so at least you can get some preliminary issues out of the way without cost. Nobody should promise you a true "high and tight" if you have a short foreskin. This is why they wont commit to a given result or technique until they can see what they have to work with.
A friend had a revision with one of these doctors and was pleased with the result and the respect with which he was treated throughout. The general cost seems to be about $1000 US(including consultation and follow up) and insurance is not useful in most cases.
This is not meant to be an endorsement for these doctors, but there have been so many postings trying to find a doctor and nobody has mentioned this approach. I have not found a listing that shows them geographically.

I was circumcised by laser when I was 50 years old in a California outpatient clinic. I had lived half my life with a foreskin, but always envied the boys and men who had a beautiful circumcised cock. It was the most painless procedure that I have ever undergone. No blood, no bleeding, no pain. One minute I had a foreskin (which was very loose anyway) and the next minute I was free of the annoying “anteater” look of my cock. The stitches came out in a few days and now my HIGHLY sensitive dickhead responds to the slightest stimulation. What a pleasure and aesthetic joy this new look has given me. The surgeon left a little extra skin for expansion, which never overhangs the glans, but I would like to be re-circumcised, making it even tighter. It was a very erotic procedure, and I felt cleansed afterwards. Absolutely, no regrets. Circumcision has enhanced the pleasure of my sexual activity a thousand times over! Don’t be afraid…just do it!

I'm an 18 year old boy who's had alot of trouble with his foreskin in recent years. Both of my parent's are British, so I wasn't circumcised at birth. They moved to Denver, Colorado a few years before I was born.. All of my friends are circumcised and I want to be as well. I talked to my mother about it and arranged for me to see Dr. Jeff Fegan, at his Aspen Colorado location. He has other offices in the region too. I would recommend him as I am very pleased with the result. Check out his info at: http://www.avhaspen.org/physiciandir/urology.html

Try out the Reed Clinic. Dr. Harold Reed is located in just north of Miami, Florida. He specializes in cosmetic surgery of the penis.
He typically performs very low and tight circumcisions. (Shaft skin right up behind the glans. The skin is smooth when flaccid and very tight when erect.) However, he'll do whatever style you suggest. He circumcised the CIRCLIST Moderator, very high and tight with complete frenulum removal. Be specific in your request and you will get exactly what you desire.
He will perform the consultation and circumcision all the same day, for a total cost of approximately $1200. The staff is very helpful in suggesting travel arrangements/accommodations and he accepts most insurance.

I had a very high and tight cut. A double set of sutures had been used to keep the incision in place. The scar line is flush with the base of my penis when soft (right at the pubic region). When erect it moves forward about 2 cm. It is not visible except under the correct lighting condition. (I can find it since I know what I am looking for)

This doctor is an artist. I strongly advise you to check him out. I wanted all of the
inner skin removed and this is what I got. I tend to get an erection every time I look at
my new dick. He did a great job on me too!
Nermal, <very low and tight>
-------------------
As a former patient of Dr Reed, I would recommend him
very highly. I had a loose circumcision (done as an adult) and went to him
to have it tightened up. He examined me first in one room where he asked
me to undress completely - even socks and get on the table. He then
examined my penis and asked me what I didn't like about my circ. I told
him to tighten it up and cut the frenulum completely off. He then
stretched it, marked it where he was going to cut, and then I got dressed.
I then went into the next room and undressed again, put my clothes in a
locker, put on a surgical robe and then went to his extremely well
equipped operating room. Incidentally, the room where you leave you
clothes is extremely well equipped as well- it looks like a bathroom at
the Ritz-Carlton.
In the operating room he injected the area, put a cloth
over me with a hole in it for my penis, put a pressure monitor on
one arm and a needle in the other one attached to a bottle. His assistant,
Damian, stretched my penis with a device that he inserted in the hole, and
he then cut away. I felt absolutely nothing. It took about 45 minutes.
They left me on the table about 2 hours to rest, asked me what I wanted to
eat, and then I dressed and left. I had to fill an antibiotic prescription
that he gave me, but it was only a prevention. He asked me to return the
next day, which I did, and pronounced that everything was excellent. I
took the bandage off in about a week and the very fine stitches out about
10 days later. No problems at all- no infection, basically no pain, and
very little swelling.

Another Florida option is Dr. Whitney. Dr. Whitney largely does female surgical procedures not related to circumcision, but he will circumcise your son at his office or through the family planning clinic.
The following website is offering adult circumcised as well for $500. As far as I can tell (it's not 100% clear), your money buys you a frenulum removal followed by a Gomco procedure

Located in Atlanta, Georgia, The Circumcision Center is a specialty center of David H. Cornell, MD, LLC. Dr. Cornell has extensive experience performing circumcisions and revisions on adults and is very well known and respected by the members of CIRCLIST and many other online list serves. He was the first to setup and maintain a patient oriented website to take questions directly from individuals considering circumcision for themselves or loved ones. He believes that a circumcision should be treated with the aesthetic consideration of cosmetic surgery and should serve to enhance the man's appearance. Dr. Cornell is sensitive to individual patient needs, including individual aesthetic considerations. Unlike other urologists, he will use differing techniques to give you just the appearance you desire, be it high or low, tight or loose, and even options with regard to the appearance of the scar. Dr. Cornell's costs are somewhat higher than others, but he is highly knowledgeable and experienced.

To those of you who may have missed it, Dr. David has completed over 300 circumcisions in a year. His patients have come from all over the United States, even foreign countries to receive circumcision from a Master surgeon. IT MUST BE NOTICED THAT ALMOST EVERYONE OF HIS PATIENTS ARE HIGHLY PLEASED WITH THE COSMETIC RESULTS. THERE HAVE BEEN NO DEATHS!! NO INFECTIONS. When one follows what Dr. David has to say concerning care after circumcision, the results are superb. In the part of the US where I live, we have a circumcision rate of about 86% of newborns--even higher in some other parts of the Midwest. It is the surgery of choice by parents for their sons. Being circumcised is American as eating pumpkin pie & turkey on Thanksgiving. Circumcision is a wise choice--and, no one has a right to infringe upon this decision of parents for their sons. As one young man recently said, Thank God, my parents had me circumcised." One father when asked if he wanted his son circumcised said, "I thought about it for one or two seconds before saying, "ABSOLUTELY!" "I AM NOT HAVING ANY OF MY SONS UNCIRCUMCISED. ALL OF OUR FAMILY IS CIRCUMCISED." POPULAR VIEWS IN OUR AREA. Millions upon millions of Americans, members of the Moslem and Jewish faith have practiced circumcision since before the time of Abraham--and, I dare say the custom will prevail as part of the cultural, social, and religious life of these peoples and others for ever. Sincerely, Vern. PS: THANK GOD FOR A DOCTOR LIKE DOCTOR DAVID WHO DOES ADULT CIRCUMCISIONS FOR PATIENTS WHO WERE NOT LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE CIRCUMCISED AS INFANTS. There is not a better doctor for adult circumcision. His patients grow in numbers each year because of his international reputation--and, countless numbers of very satisfied clients.

In Vancouver, go see Dr. Jamie Wright at the Broadway Medical Centre. He did mine two years ago and managed to get it covered under Medicare.
In Toronto there is a physician indicating he does cosmetic circumcision. They have an online gallery of various penile operations the doc has done. And he has appeared in the Discovery (Canada) Channel's "The Sex Files". I don't have experience with him, so you need to do due diligence and ensure he is open and experienced in doing the style of circumcision you wish. I asked him about the styles of circs in his gallery once (they seemed loose) and he told me that this is how his patients had wanted it. He does circs with an induced erection. Not sure how much he charges, but it should be far mroe reasonable than what businesses charge south of the border. If you're lucky, he could consider your foreskin problems to be a serious and medically justify your operation Contact him at:

My circ was done by a young urologist who is just starting his career.(Dr.S.Steele) He is no longer located in my province (Ontario) and has moved to Halifax Nova Scotia.. As mentioned on your site his being a urologist means this would be only a small part of his work. He did end up doing a pretty good job. Perhaps not as tight as I would have wanted it but good enough.

I don't know if you are aware but besides Dr D'Silva - now assisted by Dr Kahn - at the former Circumcision Agency (renamed last year the Circumcision Centre)
http://www.circumcisioncentre.co.uk and Dr Zarifa at the Custom's House Surgery http://www.circumcisions.co.uk/ , there are two other circumcision clinics that have opened their doors in London offering the procedure (both adult and child) at very reasonable rates performed by skilled professionals. Check out: http://www.circumcisiononline.co.uk and http://circumcisioninlondon.co.uk/-------------------------------------------
For circs in the UK try Dr Zuhair Zarifa, Custom House Surgery, 16 Freemasons Rd, Custom House E163NA, Tel 020 74762255. I have heard from others that he does a lot of circs and is very good. Go for a local. A general anesthetic is overkill for a minor surgery such as a circ. He also gladly does circumcision revisions to tighten up loose circumcisions. http://www.circumcisions.co.uk/
My costs for Dr. Zarifa were £240 + £100 for a pre-op consultation where I showed him a picture of what I wanted and we discussed how tight to make it etc. They don't have credit card facilities though, so I paid cash
Rob (UK)
In my opinion, Dr Zarifa is on of the finest circumcisers available in the UK. He did a re-circumcision for me last December and the result is in all ways completely satisfactory. I watched the whole procedure and did not feel much at all while he was working. He listens to the patient and he even responded to my request to cut round a second time before stitching and remove a further sleeve of skin in order to ensure the "completeness" and absolute tightness of the final result. Discuss all your concerns with him beforehand and be reassured prior to your circumcision. As for sensitivity of the glans after you are cut - I suggest that you start dealing with this now, by wearing your foreskin back all the time. If necessary, tape it back to ensure that it stays retracted. You will gradually lose the over-sensitivity and it is not really such a big issue. Overall, you will gain so much from being circumcised - sexually, hygiene and health-wise, appearance, absolute comfort and self esteem, that you should not hesitate for a moment before booking your circumcision. The woman in your life will really love it too - most women who have experienced sex with a circumcised man much prefer we roundheads for a whole range of very good reasons. Ask a woman who knows the difference!

We were rather nervous about having our son of just 10 weeks old circumcised, but Integrated Medical Centre and Dr Bakir were strongly recommended by our private doctor, whom we greatly trust and whose nephews had also been circumcised there. She was absolutely right. The service we received was simply excellent. On our arrival at the clinic, we were made to feel at ease and given a very clear explanation of the event itself and, more importantly, what to expect in the following days. The typed notes about this 'after period' were clear and accurate (although not always in the Queen's English!). Now, two weeks on, our son looks perfect. We would recommend IMC to anyone, and would certainly return if our next child is a boy so could you please add www.circumcisiononline.co.uk to the practitioners list.

I had my adult cut at a urologist. However a friend of mine also wanted to
be cut after he saw mine in gym and his new girl friend told him she prefers
them cut. So he asked me where I got it done and what it cost. He as you
thought it was to pricey. However during that period the men's clinic had an
weekly ad in the news paper about erectile dysfunction. Every so often they
also claimed they did circumcision in the ad. He phoned and they confirmed that
they do circumcision once a months on a Saturday morning at the Santon clinic.
He had to book more than a month in advance, that is how big the demand was.
They told him it was about R500. This was in 2002.

Thailand: Bangkok Open for Circumcision Services
Yes, I did have my circumcision in Bangkok at Christmas/New year 05/06. As you may know, they welcome foreigners to their specially designed hospitals and clinics. Many Americans, Europeans and Australians go there, mostly for cosmetic procedures, but not exclusively. Service is superb and clinical treatment is excellent from my experience. And best yet, very reasonably priced.
I had some stunning female nurses inspecting me...at one point on my first consultation with the urologist in Bangkok he had a nurse in the room...she watched all...as the doctor examined me. She was about 400mm away from my uncut cock as the doctor was pulling in back and forth. I was watching her watching my cock be examined and getting slightly aroused. She was also there for both my follow up visits to get stitches out etc.
I had a bed bath by a 45-50 y/o lady with a young assistant about 20 y/o. The young assistant had a cheeky smile on her face when she was washing around my cock...I pulled back my foreskin to get her to wash under it...The older lady wash not impressed.
I was shaved by a 35-40 year old hottie...(I had a very long foreskin that even when hard still covered the head). I also use shaving as foreplay...so....I got a little hot after a few minutes I stopped her shaving and retracted my foreskin...she smiled and nodded I guess as she liked it better like that. About 3 minutes later she looked closely at my cock and then looked at me smiled and wiped clear pre-cum off my cock with a tissue and giggled a little.
I stayed overnight in Bumrungrad as I wanted the full treatment...before I left my room after the circ, a model like senior nurse about 28-32 came in and I had a great talk about circumcision with her for about 20 minutes...about customs and practices around the world...Thailand, Australia, USA, Europe etc.
She was very disappointed that the circ rate in Australia is now very low and couldn’t understand why its not mandatory for all men.
I got very personal with her and ask her about her, and her friends preferences...she said she would only touch a cut cock, even if she found a great guy if he was uncut she would insist on a circumcision if it was going to be a serious relationship.
