Questions parents ask before deciding

Yes. Rabbi Joseph performs circumcisions for healthy babies from newborn up to 6 months old. The earlier, the smoother the procedure and recovery tend to be.

No. Babies naturally begin producing Vitamin K on their own by day 8. We schedule procedures accordingly and do not require a Vitamin K shot beforehand.

No referral or prescription is required. If your baby has any health concerns or was premature, we recommend a quick check with your pediatrician first. Rabbi Joseph answers all your questions during your free consultation call before you decide anything.

We use topical lidocaine anesthesia applied directly to the area. The procedure takes 60–90 seconds. You and your partner are present and holding your baby throughout every step — this is not a hospital where parents wait outside.

Hospital circumcisions are rushed, clinical, and parents are asked to wait outside. With Rabbi Joseph, you are present and holding your baby from start to finish. At your home (Elite Care) or in a calm private office in Aventura (Essential Care), the experience is intimate, unhurried, and on your family's timing.

Most babies fully heal in 10–15 days. Rabbi Joseph provides detailed aftercare instructions and is available 24/7 during the entire recovery period — something no hospital offers.

19 years of experience, over 5,000 circumcisions across Miami-Dade, Broward, and South Florida. He serves Jewish and non-Jewish families and speaks English and Spanish.
