Rabbi Gluck

Qualified & Experienced

Rabbi Gluck is one of the longest established specialists in circumcision in the London area. Several decades ago whilst still single he chose to continue in his family’s tradition to become a trained circumciser and embarked on a career that has seen him perform thousands of circumcisions.

He began his training at Bearsted Memorial Hospital which stood on the site where currently the Schonfeld Square home for the elderly is located. At the Bearsted, he apprenticed under the supervision of the legendary Mr Godel Halpern and two doctors Dr. Bernard Homa, and Dr. Leonard Snowman whose father had been the doctor of the present King Charles.

Valid according to

jewish law

Traditionally, the parents of a Jewish child engage a mohel to perform the Bris. A circumciser is especially trained in the medical and surgical techniques of circumcision as well as being an expert in the Jewish laws pertaining to Bris Milah. A doctor’s medical circumcision usually performs in a hospital on the second or third day after birth and does not fulfil the requirements of bris and as a result the bris is not considered valid according to the Jewish law. The Bris Milah must be performed by a Jewish person who understands, upholds and practices the tenets of the Jewish religion and is a trained to fulfil the duties of a mohel.

Certified by the Best

Rabbi Gluck is one of the longest serving circumcisers to be certified by the Initiation Society the legal professional body that oversees circumcisions under the aegis of the London Beth Din (religious supervising court). The society was founded 250 years ago and continues to ensure that the highest medical and religious standards are practiced. Today Rabbi Gluck performs circumcisions on a regular basis including children and even grandchildren of boys he circumcised many years ago. He has earned popular acclaim the world over for his unique blend of valuable expertise and experience alongside a warm and caring demeanour.

Rabbi Gluck’s services have been called upon in many international countries including Russia, Germany, Sweden Ireland, Israel, the USA, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Malta and Gibraltar and even as far as Singapore and Hong Kong.
