Parents may wish to have their newborn baby boy circumcised for religious, social or cultural reasons. Dr Barrie performs circumcisions on male infants using a local anaesthetic which provides safe and effective pain-relief. The baby must be under eight weeks of age, with the ideal time being within the first two weeks of birth.

He employs the Plastibell technique which has significant advantages over other methods of circumcision. It results in a neat and perfectly circular circumcision.

The fee is £440 which includes a detailed pre-operative assessment, the circumcision procedure and anaesthetic, and a follow up consultation after seven days.
