The previous pediatrician screwed that part up. It cost us $7000 for a doc to repair the incorrectly performed circumcision. That’s something that just can’t be screwed up.

Unfortunately, that's very common. One of our sons had to have a revision, too. When he was an infant, we pointed out the problem to every pediatrician, and they all shrugged it off. Finally, six years later, I diagnosed the problem myself using the internet and took him to a urologist for surgery.

As for choosing a pediatrician: Are you worried that a pediatrician might insist that you do something you object to? If so, I can understand that. Through the years, I've had disagreements with many pediatricians. Doctors do make mistakes. Sometimes they're flat-out wrong. But, if you just choose one to see your baby in the hospital, you can switch later to another practitioner.
