Your Baby Deserves the Best.We Built Everything Around That.
We've built our entire newborn service around the things that genuinely matter to parents during one of the most emotional weeks of their lives - clarity, calm, expert hands, and a team that holds yours all the way to the final healing day.
Our pricing is all-inclusive and refreshingly honest. One clear figure covers your consultation, the procedure itself, the full Pollock Technique™ comfort protocol, every follow-up visit, and ongoing aftercare support - no hidden extras, no surprise invoices, no charge if you need to pop in for reassurance. And because healing happens at home, often in the small hours of the morning, every family we care for has direct 24/7 access to our clinical team. You're never left wondering, never left waiting, and never left to figure it out alone.
We also do something most clinics don't - we give you time. The procedure itself takes around 60 seconds, but your appointment is generously long on purpose. Time to feed your baby, time to settle, time to ask every question, and time for a proper cuddle afterwards before you head home. All of it carried out by doctors who chose to specialise in this - bringing real surgical, plastic surgery, and GP backgrounds, full Pollock Technique™ certification, and the calm bedside manner that only comes from caring for thousands of newborns and the parents who love them.
The Gentlest Newborn Circumcision - and the Most Reassuring Experience For You
We've refined every part of the experience around your baby and around you. From the moment you arrive to the moment your baby is fully healed, three things make the Gentle Procedures experience different - and they're the three things parents tell us made all the difference.
A quick, gentle procedure
Using the Pollock Technique™ - the global gold standard, trusted in 200,000+ newborns worldwide - the procedure itself takes around 60 seconds. With our layered comfort protocol, most babies barely stir, and many sleep right through it.
Unhurried, generous appointments
Our appointments are intentionally generous with time. Not because the procedure takes long - but because you might need to settle, ask questions, and feel completely ready before anything happens. We never rush.
24/7 doctor access, always included
Healing happens at home, often in the middle of the night. Every family has direct 24/7 access to our clinical team, plus follow-up visits at no extra cost, for as long as your baby needs us.

Real Stories. Real Families.
It really was a gentle procedure! My newborn had a circumcision done at the clinic at 3 weeks old. I was not planning on being in the room however the nurse said that my participation would be good for my son. I'm glad I was there because I was able to help in comforting him. The procedure was quickly and my son only cried for the freezing needle and not the actual procedure. The aftercare is also handled well; I called in with a question a few days later and it was answered promptly.
Procedure was very quick and staff was very friendly. It healed very nicely and we were able to send a picture instead of a follow-up appointment, which is very nice when you have a newborn and don’t have to go to an extra appointment.
The procedure was fast and painless. Everyone at the clinic is professional and welcoming. After the procedure and during my healing time any questions and concerns that I had was answered by the doctor promptly. The doctor went above and beyond to accommodate me in some small issues that I was having. Over all great experience and would recommend this clinic.
I cannot recommend the Gentle Procedures Clinic highly enough! From start to finish, my experience was outstanding. The doctor was absolutely amazing-professional, reassuring, and incredibly skilled. The procedure itself was unbelievably quick and completely pain- free. I hardly noticed that I had undergone a procedure at all! Even afterward, I felt zero pain or discomfort, which was a pleasant surprise.
We took our newborn son into this clinic to be circumcised when he was two weeks old. As his mother, I felt so nervous and sick to my stomach at the thought of the procedure and I was dreading it! But everything at the clinic went very smoothly. We were checked in right away and put in a a private room immediately. The environment was very clean and quiet and the soothing music that they play made the environment very calming and peaceful as well.

Newborn Circumcision:
Honest Answers For New Parents
Is newborn circumcision safe?
Yes. At Gentle Procedures, we use the Pollock Technique™, one of the safest, most refined procedures in medicine, with over 200,000 cases worldwide and an exceptionally low complication rate. Every procedure at our clinic is led by a doctor with specialist newborn training.
Does circumcision hurt a newborn?
Our layered comfort protocol, topical numbing cream, a precise local anaesthetic, and sucrose, means most babies feel only gentle pressure. Many sleep through it entirely. The procedure itself takes around 60 seconds, so any discomfort is minimal and very brief.
What's the best age for newborn circumcision?
The 0–2 month window is widely considered the gentlest. Babies heal faster, feed more easily afterwards, and the procedure is quick and well-tolerated. We can advise on the ideal time during your free phone consultation.
How long does newborn circumcision take?
The procedure itself takes around 60 seconds. Your full appointment runs about 45 minutes to an hour, so there's plenty of time to settle, feed, ask questions, and leave feeling calm.
How long does it take for a newborn to heal?
Most babies are fully healed within 7–10 days. Because we use skin glue rather than stitches, healing is clean, simple, and predictable.
How do I care for my baby after circumcision?
We send you home with easy, parent-friendly aftercare instructions plus 24/7 access to our doctors. Caring for your baby is straightforward: gentle nappy changes, plenty of cuddles, and a quick message to us if anything worries you.
What's included in your price?
Everything. Consultation, the procedure, the Pollock Technique™ comfort protocol, skin glue closure, all follow-up visits, and 24/7 aftercare support. No hidden charges, no surprise invoices.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book directly with us - no GP referral required and no NHS waiting lists.
