Why SafeCirc®: A parent's perspective

Choosing the right provider for your baby's circumcision is an important decision. At SafeCirc®, we honor your values and support your family with compassionate care, expert skill, and a family-centered approach. Here's why parents trust SafeCirc® to make this experience safe, respectful, and comfortable.

Meet Dr. Tomlinson: Expert and compassionate care

"From the very beginning, Dr. Tomlinson was incredibly professional, kind, and knowledgeable. He took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, what to expect during recovery, and the potential health benefits of the procedure. His ability to make us feel comfortable and informed truly made a difference." — Kayla Cunningham

"Dr. Tomlinson embodies everything a medical professional should be—skilled, compassionate, conscientious, knowledgeable, honest, and detail-oriented." — John Meara

"I have never had a doctor dedicate so much personal time to ensuring we understood every aspect of the procedure, including the risks, benefits, and what to expect. He answered every question thoroughly, making us feel completely at ease." — John Meara

A comfortable, family-friendly facility

"The facility was brand new, clean, comfortable, and easy to get to. Upon arriving Dr. Tomlinson greeted us and immediately showed us the care and compassion every parent wants when putting your child in someone else's hands—answering all of our questions and ensuring we were at ease with the procedure." — Olivia Mahoney

"Dr. Tomlinson is so thorough and clearly passionate about what he does. He even included my six year old son in the conversations and asked if he had any questions. He made sure my husband and I were completely comfortable with the procedure and provided support to us in the days following." — Lauren G

"The SafeCirc® facility is a clean and calming environment much unlike the chaos of the hospital. Dr. Tomlinson spent the time to talk us through the procedure and answer all of our questions." — Elyse Barlow

"[Dr. Tomlinson] started the apt with presentation outlining the details of the procedure, which was educational, insightful and comforting. We were also comforted by the fact that we could see our son throughout the entire procedure through a glass window." — Anna Klein

Follow-up care and support you can count on

"At one point during the healing process, I was nervous about something and sent him a text at 9pm not expecting to hear back until business hours. He immediately gave me a call to talk to me about my concerns and reassure me." — Kelsey Nickson

"When calling SafeCirc® you are not greeted by an automated system or a receptionist, it's Dr. Tomlinson on the other end of the phone. From the first conversation he makes you feel comfortable and well informed of the procedure from pre-op to recovery." — Brianna Fournier

"What really stood out is how much Dr. Tomlinson cares. He was available 24/7 for any questions or concerns. He followed up with us a few days later to check on how my son was doing and how we were all feeling—not just physically, but emotionally." — Carli Hennebury

"He took the time to check in a few days afterwards, and we have a follow up a few weeks later—a service not provided by my OB/delivery team." — Rachel D

Honoring your choice about vitamin K

"We crossed paths with Dr. Tomlinson after a long search for a circumcision clinic for our newborn that would honor our wishes of avoiding the vitamin K injection for our little one. Not only did Dr. Tomlinson make us feel heard and respected as new parents, he reassured us by explaining his understanding of our concerns and sharing his past experience(s) surrounding our decision." — Sunna Ahmad

"He was supportive and not judgmental while helping us understand the options that we have as new parents. This was not how we felt at the hospital, in our case, Women and Infants, where they require your child to receive the Vitamin K shot in order to be circumcised at their hospital. While trying to decide what was right for our son, we felt extremely pressured and judged by the staff when we would even ask questions about Vitamin K. When we decided not to receive it some of the staff became rude and would continue to push us in an uncomfortable way. While I was back admitted in the hospital for preeclampsia, my husband brought our son to Dr. Tomlinson and I was so confident in their services because it had been so well explained." — Heidi Bates

Timing that respects your family's needs

"I was relieved and happy that we could have the procedure a week after birth, instead of hours. I had always felt anxious thinking about having my son experience that type of trauma mere hours after birth, without me by my side. That worry dissolved at SafeCirc®. I could see and hear my son and the doctor the entire procedure, I was able to breastfeed him immediately after too." — Janelle Laurito

"Dr. Tomlinson is a huge proponent of ensuring a breastfeeding baby has the chance to develop that strong relationship with mother before circumcision rather than disrupt the success of that process. Our Lactation Consultants spoke in great support and honestly disbelief that a Circumcision Specialist understood the value of this." — Allison Palmer
