Have you been circumcised through the nhs? Got a few questions

in reply to JedSpinx

No. I am still intact and have no penis health problems that would cause me to have a circumcision

There is no fixed cost. Each doctor, hospital and clinic is free to charge whatever they wish - especially in the expensive medical market of the USA.

It is normally much less costly to have your circumcision done under local anaesthetic by highly experienced doctors in a specialist circumcision clinic than by a general urologist in a hospital where you are given a general anaesthetic and have to stay the night afterwards.

I was in by 1:00 and home by 4:00. The actual procedure took a little over an hour. The rest of them time was for the preparation!

I was circumcised in the US by a urologist. The cost of the circumcision was a little over $4,000. However, my medical insurance covered most of it. I had to pay about $250!

Specialist clinics only use local anaesthetic, so you are free to go almost immediately after the procedure is over. This will give the lowest cost.

You should ask the clinic, in advance of booking, what they charge for a circumcision.

Are you using your insurance? If so, the insurance may be covering most of the cost!

$418 sounds like awfully low amount. If you google what a circumcision procedure cost in the US, it will tell you a much higher amount than $418.

That sounds very low for a USA clinic. The cost with one of the best London clinics is £550 ($715), so I'd expect around $900.

Here in Finland cost in private clinics is around 650-700 euro. If you have a medical need for circumcision you have to pay around 120 euro on public healthcare, but need to wait like three months.
