Dear Dr Harris
We would like to thank you for performing (our Grandson’s) Bris and for giving him such good care.
It is a very long time since our own son’s Bris.
Kind regards,
Mr & Mrs F (Grandparents)
Dear Martin
I am writing to thank you for all the support and encouragement you gave Rachel whilst in hospital and putting her in touch with an excellent locum. It really was very kind of you to visit her and the baby and we were sorry that you were unable to perform the Milah yourself being abroad on vacation. I have told Rachel to get the timing right for the next one and make sure it doesn’t coincide with your holidays!
Once again many thanks for your kindness-it is very much appreciated.
Best wishes to you and the family for the coming year,
With kindest regards,
Dr Charlie Zuckerman MBE FRCGP
We would like to take the opportunity to thank you for being the Mohel at the Bris of our son Tzvi, who B’H is well and thriving.
We remember how comfortable you made us feel throughout the whole process. We felt comfortable to contact you at any time and you were always able to offer us sound advice. As an added bonus, you made sure that any minor problems (eye infection, nappy rash, vitamin K) were treated early, so as not to interfere with the bris. As a result, we saved ourselves from visiting our GP.
At the bris, we felt assured and confident that our baby is in good hands and guests at our bris have commented on how smooth everything went. Tzvi came home fast asleep and was his usual happy self.
After the bris, you went out of your way to visit Tzvi at home (even on Yom Tov with your nurse). Your advice as a doctor was very helpful. Actually we still use the products you recommended for his skin.
We wish you much Hatzlocho and Nachas from all your family and may you continue to serve the community for years to come.
Best wishes

Dear Dr Harris
We would like to thank you most sincerely for the care and concern you have shown to our little Grandson and his Parents. It was good of you to guide them on the route and performing his Brit Mila Circumcision last week. You were also the Mohel for our other Grandson’s Bris Milah some years ago. We hope to see you on some future occasion.
Yours sincerely

We were extremely happy with doctor Harris’s circumcision on our son. Not only was he exceptionally professional but he was kind considerate and supportive from before and after the event. We highly recommend him!

Our Son was born with ‘Hypospadias’, a birth defect of the urethra, which we had never heard of and now understand it is becoming very common.
We had intended to have our son circumcised when he was new born and Dr. Harris came highly recommended at this critical time when important decisions had to be taken. Dr. Harris gave very helpful advice and guidance including suggesting a urology specialist. When it came to our son having the operation to repair the defect Dr. Harris kindly came to the hospital and performed the circumcision at the same time as the operation. Dr Harris went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure everything ran with ease; he stayed in contact constantly before, throughout and after the procedure making sure everyone was OK and informed every step of the way. Dr. Harris has a calm, kind demeanour and is a generous man; we are grateful to have met him and for how he helped us as a family.
We would like to extend our most heartfelt thanks to Dr Harris during what could have been an incredibly stressful time; if anyone has the same issue and would like to talk to us we would be only to happy to share our experience.

I have no hesitation in highly recommending Dr Harris to any parent wishing to have their son circumcised. At all times, Dr Harris has put the health of our son first. His advice, guidance and support have been clear, concise, informative, supportive and reassuring.
Dr Harris carried out the procedure in a professional, hygienic and neat manner. Afterwards, Dr Harris gave clear guidance on aftercare, visited regularly and was always contactable by phone if we had any questions.
Dr Harris was impressive and the combination between a Mohel with medical expertise gave us a reassuring, positive and happy experience.

Dear Martin
We are writing to thank you for the wonderful Brit you conducted and the great care you provided for our son.
We were so impressed with your hygienic as well as being pedantic about germs and infection. It is exactly what we were looking for.
We were very impressed with the extreme caution you took with the baby’s health. You did not commit a date until virtually the last moment in order to ensure the baby was not jaundice and well enough to perform the Brit.
You spent time with us, explained everything in the process (before and after the Brit), always welcoming questions, continuously called to check how the baby (and us) were and made us feel that we could call anytime of the day even at 2am if needed.
I am proud to say that the work looks good, within 24hrs we could see that our son was no longer in pain and it didn’t really bother him. Our son loved the hairdryer treatment which seem to have also helped with the little bit of colic he had (for unknown reason why)
We are so thankful for conducting the beautiful Brit service on Purim with a real sense of simcha. All our friends and family who attended the Brit commented how special it was. We believe this is largely thanks to you and your advice.
We will Definitely call for your help again (if it’s a boy) – not that the Mrs. even wants to hear about another baby (yet).
Sincere thanks and best wishes.

We are from Israel working here, so when our Son was born we did not know who to advise for the Brit Milah but had only one recommendation to a doctor, but when we talked to him on the phone he said he does stitches and we wanted Bris no stitches, so he recommended Dr Harris who is a Mohel for Bris Milah and medical doctor for circumcision in London. While we were worried, we were very happy with Dr Harris and his care all the time. Baby is fine with good healing.

Dear Dr Harris
We would like to thank you so much for being a wonderful Mohel for our new baby boy Bris Milah (circumcision). Your attention to detail and genuine care both before the Bris, during the Bris on Yom Tov, joining us at the Seudah, and the wonderful aftercare has really been fantastic in every way.
May we always share Simchos together,
Shmuel & Abi.
PS We will reassure anyone concerned about the Bris -speak to us.
Thank you so much for doing the Bris Milah Circumcision of our son. For the vast majority of Jews- us included-it is only once the baby is born and arrangements are made that the importance, magnitude and seriousness of the Mitzvah become apparent. You have been for us as Parents a source of absolute reassurance in your friendliness and confidence in your detailed explanation of what you were doing, excellent care, attention, and advice before, during and since the Brit itself, and evident concern for both the baby and his Parents.
While one baby is enough to keep our hands full for the moment, I hope we are blessed with more, and that you would do future Brises. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you.
Jon & Katie
Dear Dr Harris
We cannot possibly express our thanks for all that you did for us after the birth of our baby. You transformed the situation from one of darkness to light. From the first that you became involved, you moved mountains in order that the mitzvah should be performed properly in its right time. Everyone commented on how special the Bris was.
Your professionality, your unparalleled experience and your middos hachessed expressed themselves in the clearest way and together with Hashem’s help everything fell into place perfectly. Seeing the results of the Bris now, one would never know how complex it was to perform.
We can safely say that without your immense help, the Bris would still be waiting to be performed, with agitated parents hovering around. We are sure that you will prosper in all your future endeavours given all the unique abilities and qualities that you possess. May Hashem bless you in all that you do and may the Malach Rephael continue to accompany you as you perform Hashem’s shlichus of being Rofeh Cholim.
with heartfelt thanks
Family Rose.
Dear Martin
We appreciate you performing our Grandson’s Brit Milah. The Parents were particularly grateful for all the support and advice you gave them in the days that followed.
Shana Tova from us all,

Our son was born with hypospadias. As Orthodox Jews we were keen to have a Bris but we were told to wait until the hypospadias repair operation. For over a year Dr Harris kept in touch with us, and advised us about the urologists and the operations involved. Dr Harris is the only Mohel who is also an honorary consultant surgeon, so our son had a proper Orthodox Bris under his one operation. Dr Harris also came to the ward afterwards to do the naming ceremony, and at all times was caring and discreet- which is particularly important for confidentiality assured in a small community. We would highly recommend Dr Harris for his warmth and understanding, and also because our son had a proper Bris with Dr Harris which would have been impossible otherwise.
The Family
We cannot recommend highly enough Dr.Harris’s services as a Mohel. He is highly trained and will use every means possible to ensure a safe, clean and pain-managed Brit. In addition, Dr.Harris provided us with an amazing level of support both before and after the Brit. Due to some initial weight loss and then a number of minor ailments, our son’s Brit was not carried out until he was 5 weeks old. In that time Dr. Harris was in constant communication with us, advising us on what to look out for in terms of our son’s readiness. He even paid us a late night visit when we were concerned about our son’s health the night before the proposed date of his Brit (which was then delayed based on Dr. Harris’s advice). In short, you are in very safe hands with Dr. Harris, as he will not go ahead with a procedure unless he is absolutely certain the baby is as healthy as he could possibly be.
Dr.Harris’s after care was also amazing. He left us with detailed instructions on how to care for our son, and called every two days to check on his progress. Even now, over a month after his Brit, we know we could call on Dr.Harris should we have cause. If you want a Brit for your son carried out by a caring, medically trained and highly experienced professional, then go to Dr.Harris.

Dear Dr Harris
Thank you for your time and skill in dealing so thoroughly and sensitively with the Brit Milah circumcision of our son.
Most, if not all, of the attendees at my parents’ house commented on what a wonderful ceremony it was and my wife and I were very appreciative of the care and attention you gave to our son.
In point of fact he has continued to sleep as well after the circumcision as he did beforehand; a true “Harris Baby”!!.

“As parents to four boys, Dr Harris has been an integral part of our Jewish family life. His calm yet confident approach to this early mile stone in our sons lives has always put us at ease at what is naturally a stressful time for any parent. Dr Harris explains thoroughly what to expect and his he is reassuringly in regular contact after the procedure. We are incredibly grateful to Dr Harris and would have no hesitation in recommending his services. The Marks family”

After it became clear that my son’s circumcision wouldnt be straightforward, dr harris was recommended to me by my local mohel, who said that he was a highly skilled and experienced practitioner and a good man. both of these turned out to be true. dr harris gave us all the time we needed and was very reassuring throughout. he was conscientious, reliable and utterly professional. while there’s no getting away from the fact that the whole experience was rather stressful and difficult, it was wonderful to know – without doubt – that my son was in the best hands. I would happily recommend him to anyone.
OK, Brighton
