Congratulations on the birth of your precious child. It is an honor and a privilege to be part of such a meaningful moment in your family's life. The bris is your family's simcha, and Rabbi Markovits works closely with parents to make sure every aspect of the ceremony is carried out according to your wishes and your minhag. As most Orthodox mohalim do, he performs the bris only with the plain Shield, the Magen; no clamping device is used, and the bris itself is done in seconds, swiftly and gently. At your shul, or in the comfort of your own home. If bilirubin is a question, he coaches you through the levels and the timing so you know whether the bris can go ahead on day eight. And afterward: written aftercare, his direct number, and follow-up until your baby is fully healed.

When it comes to your baby boy's bris, you want nothing but the best. Rabbi Nechemia Markovits, M.B., is a fifth-generation mohel; his father was an esteemed mohel already in pre-war Europe. He was the youngest mohel ever certified by the Medical Board of the Initiation Society and the Beth Din of London, was ordained by Lord Immanuel Jakobovits, and is Chairman of the Bris Milah Institute. He began his practice shortly after his marriage in 1986, and today he performs brissen on the children of the boys he circumcised decades ago. Thousands of families have trusted him with the traditional bris milah, performed according to the ancient customs of our sacred tradition. Practicing mohelim have trained under him, and mohelim throughout the United States and abroad often call him in consultation.

Rabbi was extremely professional and assured me that there will be no pain when I felt nervous. Truly, there was no pain during the process. Rabbi was able to perform the operation at my home which was more comfortable for me. At the end, the outcome was perfect.

Circumcision Care for Lakewood and Ocean County
What our patients can expect. For adults: a virtually painless procedure under local anesthesia, one visit, no visible external stitches, with a fine natural-looking line as the goal. A 60 to 90 minute appointment; desk work in a day or two; strenuous activity after 3 to 4 weeks. For parents: a calm, quick procedure, done in seconds by hands that have done it 20,000 times, with a plain shield and no clamping device. Local anesthesia is available at every age, and for a newborn it is your choice. Everyone gets written aftercare and Rabbi Markovits's direct WhatsApp through recovery.
Adults from the Shore. Tight foreskin that will not pull back. Soreness or small tears. A circumcision you have been putting off for years because of what a friend said about the pain. These are the reasons most adult patients from Lakewood, Toms River, Jackson, Brick and Freehold call us, and none of them is unusual here. Outside of Bris Milah, adult patients make up the majority of the practice's circumcision cases. Rabbi Markovits has done one kind of work since 1986: circumcision, more than 20,000 times, for infants to adults. If you have been managing phimosis with a steroid cream, in his experience cream-managed phimosis tends to return; he does not offer cream treatment. Circumcision is the definitive fix.
One visit, about an hour and a half away. Your free phone or WhatsApp-video consultation happens in advance, so consultation and procedure are completed in a single appointment at 16 Sumner Pl, Brooklyn. Plan on 60 to 90 minutes. If you would rather not travel, home visits across Ocean and Monmouth County are available for eligible patients, when medically appropriate: he and his team arrive with a professional table and everything needed, he administers the anesthesia and performs the procedure himself, and you recover in your own bed. Newborns and boys are also circumcised at home. No clamping device is used. Local anesthesia is available at every age, and general anesthesia is never used. For newborns, the procedure itself takes seconds.
