Is circumcision necessary, and which method would suit me? Before recommending a circumcision procedure in Singapore, Dr Joe Lee at Dr Joe Lee @ AHS (Novena)—Urology Singapore Urologist & Andrologist—Asian Healthcare Specialists (Novena) considers your symptoms, examination findings and personal circumstances.
Circumcision may be considered for phimosis, recurrent balanitis or foreskin scarring that has not settled with other treatment. Some men also choose it for personal, cultural or religious reasons. Where it is suitable, we offer conventional, laser, stapler and Shang Ring circumcision, chosen according to your anatomy, medical conditions and preference. Each is performed as a day surgery, under local anaesthesia with or without sedation, or under general anaesthesia. If you would like to ask about the methods before booking, call us on 6690 2981.
Dr Lee also explains potential risks, such as swelling, bruising, bleeding or infection, and the fact that circumcision cannot be reversed. Our clinic is at 38 Irrawaddy Rd, #08−41, Singapore 329563, a short walk from Novena MRT station, and is open Mon–Fri 9 AM–1 PM, 2–5 PM; Sat 9 AM–1 PM; Sun Closed.
