The decision to circumcise or not is one that should be made after receiving all of the information, risk/benefit and statistics. This decision may be influenced by religious culture or simply personal preference. Either way Sweet Pea Midwifery will support your decision.
I received post graduate school training in circumcision from a few well-known Dallas area Ob/Gyns Dr. Alfredo Antonetti and Dr. Charles Downey. They have performed thousands of circumcisions in each of their careers and as attending physicians for the resident program at Methodist Dallas Medical Center they both taught many resident physicians the procedure.
As a nurse in women and children services for 13 years I assisted in over 500 circumcisions and during my time training with Dr. Antonetti and Dr. Downey I performed over 20 circumcisions with direct supervision.
I was trained in the Gomco circumcision method. This method is quick and efficient and results in less complications and quicker healing.
As a circumcision provider I strive to provide every baby I serve the utmost loving and compassionate care. I utilize soothing techniques such as upper body swaddling with warm blankets, local anesthesia, topical anesthesia, sucrose drops, dim lights and soothing sounds. My goal is for baby to experience the calmest possible circumcision.
In advance of the appointment I will share with you step-by-step information about the procedure and follow-up care. I will review with you unbiased risks and benefits of circumcision to ensure you are making a decision based on true informed consent.
After the procedure I will remain with you for a minimum of 30 minutes. In this time, we will discuss post procedure care, signs and symptoms to report to me and schedule your 1-week follow-up visit. You will have access to my personal cell phone number and if any questions arise, I welcome you to reach out. We can schedule an additional follow-up visit if you have concerns.
