Question:
Adult circumcision in Miami?
2010-03-08 10:16:04 UTC
Hi, I'm looking around for Urologists in the south florida and was wondering how much an adult circumcision goes for?

I've read $1,200 but sometimes I come across $500.
Does anyone have an accurate number?

(and please, no "DON'T DO IT' posts, I'm in a very unique situation and I'm not changing my mind)

It depends where it is done. If done in office with a local $500 or so. If done in a hospital $2000-$3000. You may want to look up in Fort Lauderdale, seems that Miami is very Cuban and they do not circumcise.



Anna and Connor have no clue on cost! It has been 10yrs, but I was done in office in San Diego and it was $400! He is a very good doctor and specializes in teen and adult circumcisions.



I was circumcised at 18 and can assure you everything they are telling you is total BS! There is no loss of sensitivity and it is not mutilation. Circumcision actually improves sexual function. An uncut guy is basically just masturbating inside his partner, while a circumcised guy gives and receives direct pleasure from his partner.



Being circumcised is also much cleaner, I could careless what the antis say, but uncut guys can wash 3x a day and still have an odor. It is also much healthier to be circumcised, uncircumcised males have a 60% higher chance of acquiring HIV and STDs through heterosexual intercourse. It also looks much better, an anteater is not pleasnt to the eye!



Being circumcised is so far superior that I had no hesitation to have my 3 boys (5,3,10mo) circumcised, as I know that there is no downside, only a lifetime of benefits.



Don't believe the crap the antis post, they are just lies and BS!

Adult Circumcision Miami

Miami is certainly one of typically the most popular vacation spots and with hotelbye you will find out more. Miami has anything for anyone; from the trendy nightlife of South Beach, bejeweled by the eye candy of the Art Deco district around the bustle of Calle Ocho and the highly caffeinated power of Little Havana. The Art Deco District brings back thoughts of a youthful amount of time in Florida with its perfectly repaired 1930s Art Deco structures and is a place well visited the same as Bayside Marketplace. This place is just a big outside fashion mall with increased than 150 niche and tourist shops, numerous bars and restaurants, and daily stay entertainment.

When someone says it's $500 they are talking about an infant circumcision. There is a guy or two on here that claim and adult circumcision will cost that much but they had their circumcisions done like 15 years ago, it's no where near that price now. Doctors offices do a better job than hospital doctors but they are more exspensive. But that's not something I would want to get cheap on if you know what I mean.



You will be lucky to get one for around $3,000. I have heard of them in the $5,000. Very rarely can you get one in the $2,000's anymore because of the economy and medical costs rising. But from most of the guys Ihave heard that have gotten it done lately is in the $3,000-$5,000 range.



Do make sure that you are aware of the effects of circumcision though. You have a right to do what you want with your body and what makes you happy, and if this is something you really want go for it, I wish you luck but there have been MANY guys on here that post questions after getting their circumcision because they didn't realise circumcision caused a significant loss in sensitivity, and some men have sexual dysfunction after (incredibly rare though). Do know that it takes away a sensitivity and it's rather significant. Just wanting to let you know so that you don't end up like some of the guys on here and regretting a decision you can't undo



Other than that good luck.

I am afraid I am also in the Don't Do It category. I am one of the ones who knows what it is like and can speak from both sides of the table on this one. I was circumcised as a child and hated it my whole life. I discovered foreskin restoration three years ago and have been restoring ever since.

The foreskin I restore will be a poor second choice to what was hacked off my protesting body all those years ago, but it will be far better than living out my life circumcised.

Today, there are always medical alternatives to circumcision. No matter what your 'unique' situation is, there are ways of solving the problem without letting some hack in a lab coat cut the entire foreskin off.

The removal of 75% of the sexually sensitive tissue on the penis cannot make things better in any way. I suggest you find a new doctor who knows how to treat an intact (not circumcised) male without jumping to this cruel, brutal and destructive procedure. Circumcision is like curing a cold with a hand gun. The results are devastating.

If the skin is too tight, there are stretches that you can do to solve that problem. I have posted some information of these stretches below.

By the time I was in my early 40s, my glans had covered over with non sensitive scar tissue and dried out from rubbing in my clothes my whole life. Sexual relations with my wife became more of a chore than an enjoyment. As soon as I started to restore, things got a whole lot better. The sensitivity began to come back, and the glans regained its healthy, glossy, rich colour.

In all animals,the glans is an internal organ. The foreskin is there to protect, sheath, and keep the glans moist and healthy. It is not an external organ that should dry out and rub raw on your clothes.

For those circumcised men who say they have lots of sensitivity,.....I say: :"Give it time!' This drying out and scarring over of the glans can and does happen to all circumcised men. It cannot help but happen.

Go to: www.norm.org and read about the reason and function of the foreskin. You will see how very fortunate you are to still have yours, and how misguided are those who promote circumcision. While you are there, check the Lost List on the left hand column of tabs. You can read about all the damage circumcision does, and what little you will be left with.

In the end, it is your decision, but please be very well informed of all the down sides the medical profession never tells you about,...or just gloss over. After all,.....they make money several times on circumcision. First, when they cut it off, and afterwards, when the problems begin to arise, they charge again trying to repair the damage they did by cutting it off in the first place. Of course, they will not warn you against it. That would be cutting their purse strings.

Aaron with Kaiser they are picky about what they apporve or not you can ask for a Urologist referral he is the one that should do it and sometimes they look at it as cosmetic and will not cover it somtimes they will you are Kaiser's mercy if the dice are in your favor then you will get it but when the big man rolls the dice and it says no then you will have to payfor it yourself. Block 4-6 weeks of recovery time. sean

Have you tried calling several Urologists? I'd start there and keep track of their responses/quotes. Once you think you have made a decision, check their profile with the Florida Department of Health to ensure they are licensed and have no outrageous complaints/judgments.

Depends if it's for medical reasons or not. If it's for legit medical reasons, then your insurance will probably cover it. If it's NOT for medical reasons, then it's considered a cosmetic surgery and you have to pay for it yourself. It can be higher than $1200, as much as $5000 actually but that's the upper range. I would think the average price would be $2000...don't trust the $500 guy...you don't exactly want to go cheap when it comes to your genitals, am I right??



Contact some urologists. It shouldn't be too hard to find them, really. Talk to your doctor and have him refer you.



I hope your "unique situation" isn't something stupid like, "my girlfriend wants me to be cut". (I've heard that before.) Because that's a stupid reason to get it done. As long as you know for sure this is what you want (because it can't be reversed!) and you're aware of the negative drawbacks (like loss of sensitivity) and potential risks (botched circ's) then go for it.

It's usually around $1000 just call several urologists and get a price in your area. If it's for medical reasons you health insurance should cover it (mine did). It's a simple outpatient procedure (takes about forty minutes). A little discomfort (no real pain) until the stitches fall out (about fourteen days) everything should be back to working condition in thirty days.

those numbers all seem a bit low to me; I would think the starting range would be around 2K and up.



yeah, phone around. doctors will usually give you some ball park idea of the cost.

Why would anyone say not to do it? Go do it. All it takes is a phone call to numerous doctors and getting ranges. Tell them what you want and ask what costs are. They have to give you that information. Don't be embarrassed either, many adult have gotten circumcised and the person on the other end won't know who you are until you give them your information to set up and appointment. Once they have this information they cannot by law go around spreading this information.
