The path
Learned from those who do it best.
-
Taught by my father, and by leading mohalim
My training began 23 years ago in my own family, learning the profession directly from my father, in a line of mohalim going back many generations. Alongside him I studied with some of the top mohalim of our time.
-
Several hundred procedures under close guidance
I took my training to the next level in practice, under the observation and guidance of Rabbi Mike Ravinski of EasyCircumcision.com, where I had the opportunity to perform over 300 circumcisions. There is no substitute for volume under a watchful eye: it is what turns knowledge into steadiness.
-
Trained for adult Bris Milah
I am additionally trained to perform Bris Milah for adults — men who did not have the opportunity to go through the religious procedure as newborns. These procedures involve anesthesia and a high degree of professional care to ensure comfort and smooth healing. This work has been carried out together with the well-known Mohel Rabbi Aron Weiss.
-
Serving communities abroad
I have had the opportunity to travel and perform Bris Milah around the world, including approximately 40 procedures, mostly across Latin America, together with my Rabbi, Rabbi Yosef Heilbrun.
In practice
What that experience means for you
Steadiness, not improvisation
Several hundred procedures means very little is new to me. That is exactly what you want on a day that only happens once.
Judgment about when to wait
Knowing when a baby is not ready is as much a part of this work as the procedure itself. I will always say so plainly.
Comfortable with the unusual
Adults, travel, families far from any Jewish community, coordination with local doctors and rabbanim — none of it is unfamiliar territory.
A standard I was raised in
Everything is done fully according to halacha, to the standard my father held, and I am happy to discuss any detail with your Rav.
