Arrange a Circumcision
You can request a circumcision appointment now for your son or for yourself. You do not need a referral from your family physician.
Please call Buenafe Clinic in Winnipeg directly for an appointment, or go ahead and request an appointment now on the website. We will call you back to schedule your initial consultation appointment (for boy and adult circumcision), or to confirm a time for an infant procedure.
For infant circumcision, a separate consultation appointment is generally not required, so you can go ahead and register online now for your baby.
If, after reviewing our website, you have questions regarding the appropriateness of circumcision for your son (or yourself), or any questions regarding specific details of the process at our clinics, you may book a consultation with Dr. Jay to review the procedure and discuss whether it might be appropriate in your case.
For adult circumcision in particular, a pre-decision consultation is a good idea in order to ensure that you make an informed decision about getting yourself circumcised at an adult age.
Preparing for the Procedure
We will speak with you to confirm on how to prepare for the circumcision. For infants we recommend feeding your son before coming in for the procedure, and bringing along extra diapers.
We will also have you give him Tylenol before leaving home. This will be reviewed with you in detail, and you can ready more about the steps before your baby boy’s circumcision on the Infant Circumcision page.
Infant Circumcision Costs Across Canada
At time of writing (2017), the only provincial jurisdiction in Canada know to cover routine male infant circumcision is Manitoba. Different from other provinces, the government health insurance plan will pay the full cost of circumcision of a baby under 28 days of age.
In other provinces the full price for non-medically necessary circumcision procedures is borne by the patient and their family.
Common Questions about Manitoba Circumcision Costs
Here are some common questions people have about our clinic’s circumcision costs:
Does Buenafe Clinic offer circumcision for those not covered by Manitoba Health?
Yes. Because circumcision is not covered by Manitoba Health (except for newborns under 4 weeks) we are able to offer the same services and pricing to all clients independent of their province or country of residence or origin.
Does Manitoba Health cover circumcision?
Circumcision is only covered by public health insurance in the province of Manitoba for newborn boys in the first four weeks of life. Most of the circumcision procedures performed in MB are paid for privately.
For babies, boys, and men older than 28 days you will pay directly for the procedure at our Winnipeg circumcision clinic, per our price list.
