All the following steps are taken to insure that your son has minimal discomfort during the procedure: Give your son 0.5 mL of Infants’ Tylenol or Tempra Infant Drops (if available) approximately one hour prior to the procedure, before coming to the office. Please ensure that your child has been well fed prior to the circumcision. Please finish feeding him at least 45 – 60 minutes prior to the circumcision. Please arrive at the office at least 15 minutes before your scheduled apportionment time. To avoid crowding in the office, we allow only two adults to attend with the baby. Please do not bring any other children. As of June 11th, 2022, wearing a mask in doctor’s office is optional. Upon arrival, check in at the front desk and sign the consent form. Dr. Greenberg will then bring you and your son into one of our examination/treatment rooms. You will be able to discuss any questions and concerns with Dr. Greenberg before the circumcision takes place. Dr. Greenberg will administer a local anaesthetic (lidocaine HCl) by subcutaneous injection, which will numb your child’s penis. The circumcision will then be performed. Afterwards, you will be asked to sit with your son and feed him if he wishes to feed. Dr. Greenberg will examine your son approximately 20 minutes after the circumcision and demonstrate the after care to you.
