We perform circumcisions at Brave Care. Circumcisions are an elective procedure, so parents can choose whether they want it done for their genetically male children or not. Circumcisions may be performed on genetically male infants less than 4 weeks of age. If the baby was born before 37 weeks of age, we may be able to extend the procedure past 4 weeks of age. Feel free to call our clinic at (503) 300-4111 for a consultation. 

What information should I know about circumcisions?

Our Brave Care providers use the Gomco or Plastibell method of circumcisions. 

What is the method of circumcision used by Brave Care providers?

Children may be circumcised before 4 weeks of age. It can sometimes be done safely after 4 weeks of age for children born before 37 weeks. If your child was born before 37 weeks of age, please call the clinic at (503) 300-4111 for more information. Generally, it’s best to call as soon as the baby is born to make sure we have plenty of time to schedule the procedure.

When should we have our child circumcised?

We are happy to bill insurance for circumcision; however, not all insurance companies cover this procedure. For insurance companies who do not cover the procedure, Brave Care charges $393 dollars out-of-pocket, but we offer a 20% discount for same-day payment.

We have answers.
