[quote=Anonymous]I just moved to America with my husband in November and I am now pregnant with a boy. I’m Muslim and circumcision is required religiously and culturally. Back home the pediatrician is the one who does the circumcision but my OBGYN told me that she can do it. Is this common practice? My neighbor is Jewish and she told me that OBGYNs don’t do circumcision correctly and she recommends going to a Jewish brise (forgive me if this isn’t the right word) that is also a doctor. I understand that for Jews just like Muslims circumcision is required. However I think that they are more strict than us since for us it isn’t a religious ceremony but done quickly by the pediatrician. I am confused over what I should do as I don’t understand the medical system here. Please advise. Thank you. [/quote]
