Circumcision for my 4-month old

Hi! Any recommendations on which clinic/hospital to circumcise my 4-month old? I’d also like to know how much is the cost and if we can pay using CDA. Thanks mamas!

Hi Natasha! Great that you're planning ahead for this. For a 4-month old, the good news is that circumcision can be done safely under local anaesthesia using a plastibell device for babies below 4 months old, but at 4 months your paed will advise on the best timing and approach for your baby specifically. On the CDA question, yes it is claimable! The costs are fully payable via CDA and also claimable from Medisave up to $1,250 for a day surgery procedure. For clinics, many mummies go through KKH or NUH for infant circumcision as they have dedicated paediatric surgical teams. Private options like Paediatric Surgery and Urology International are also popular and CDA-claimable. Always best to get a referral from your paed first so they can assess your baby and recommend the right timing and method. Hope it goes smoothly for your little one!
