Overview

Typically, circumcisions are performed in the hospital a day or two after birth. However, Dr. Palfreeman offers in-office circumcisions for newborns soon after they are discharged from the hospital. He understands this is a very personal choice and supports parents in whatever they decide. He will answer all your questions and ensure you feel comfortable with the procedure. When a circumcision is elected, Dr. Palfreeman seeks to create an experience that minimizes stress for the baby and caregivers.
