Does anyone know of a good paediatrician who consults at St. Vincents Private in Melbourne who will give me a referral for a circumcision? I am expecting our second baby in September and if it is a boy, we want to have him circumcised. I have an Obstetrician who will do the procedure (Lionel Steinberg), but I know I will really struggle to get a referral from my Obstetrician (not Lionel). I really don't want to have to have a fight on my hands with the doctor about this issue - it's something my husband and I just want done and we don't want an arguement at the time.

You need a referral from your GP not a paediatrician.

yep, GP is the place to start.
