Why Parents Choose Gentle Procedures
We built our newborn service around the needs of two people: your baby, and you.
That starts with time. The procedure itself is quick, but your appointment is deliberately long. There is time to arrive and settle, time to feed your baby, time to ask every question on your mind, and time for a proper cuddle before you head home. We are here to support you, not to hurry you.
The technique matters too. We use the Pollock Technique™, an evidence-led method chosen for its speed and precision. There are no stitches, and compared with traditional stitched methods, healing tends to be faster and the risk of infection lower.
Families choose circumcision for religious, cultural and personal reasons. Our team understands and respects them all, and we will care for your family accordingly.
Every step is carried out by doctors who chose to specialise in this work. It is what they do every day, and it shows in the calm, steady way they care for newborns and for 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.
A quick, gentle procedure
We use the no-stitch Pollock Technique™, used in more than 200,000 newborn circumcisions worldwide. The procedure takes around 60 seconds, and with your baby kept comfortable throughout, most stay settled and many sleep right through.
Unhurried, generous appointments

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. 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 - a quick, well-established method, used in more than 200,000 newborn circumcisions worldwide. Complications are uncommon. Every procedure at our clinic is led by a doctor with specialist newborn training, and your doctor will talk everything through with you, including the small risks that come with any procedure.
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 out-of-hours 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 out-of-hours aftercare support. No hidden charges, no surprise invoices.
