Facing Circumcision:
Eight Physicians Tell Their Stories
and reveal the ethical dilemmas of
physicians who circumcise newborns


Seven family practice physicians and one emergency room physician in Santa Fe, New Mexico, struggle with their consciences as they examine the ethical and human rights issues of infant circumcision. Three of the physicians tell why they stopped circumcising. The rest tell why they continue to circumcise or to advocate circumcision and discuss what considerations might lead them to change their minds.

For every parent considering circumcision for their newborn, every physician who circumcises and every medical student.

"The film is well...the most convincing thing I've seen yet. The doctors are amazingly articulate. I have always said, we must let them tell their truth. Surely this work was divinely inspired." --Jody McLaughlin, Editor, The Compleat Mother Magazine

"Doctors communicating frankly and openly about the practice of circumcision. A compelling video. It should be viewed by all potential parents and medical care personnel." --Dean Edell, MD, Medical Journalist
