Rabbi Eliezer Lawrence, Certified Mohel, New York NY

Rabbi Lawrence is a caring and skilled Mohel. He worked with us to ensure that we were comfortable with every detail of the service and that the event was meaningful and beautiful for our whole family.

Rabbi Lawrence was amazing! He was warm, knowledgeable, thorough, and detail oriented. He made sure we felt comfortable leading up to the bris and led a beautiful and personalized ceremony incorporating all of our family members. It really felt like we had known him for years! He was patient throughout and guided us through all of the details with caring for our son after the bris. Rabbi Lawrence did an excellent job and I would highly recommend him to friends and family members!

Rabbi Lawrence was responsive, thorough and patient throughout the entire process. Beginning when I contacted him to learn more about his practice before my son was born, upon his birth in scheduling the Bris and even after or during aftercare. To top it off, he led a beautiful ceremony as well.

Rabbi Lawrence was great! He helped make the whole bris experience calm, loving and welcoming! Beautiful ceremony by him!

Rabbi Lawrence performed a wonderful ceremony for my son's bris. He was also extremely helpful with the aftercare and checked up on us several times I highly recommend using Rabbi Lawrence.

Rabbi Lawrence made a beautiful bris for our son. He was inclusive, accessible and gave excellent aftercare instructions.

My father, z"l, was a general surgeon and so finding a mohel who would put my son's safety first when conducting his circumcision was our top priority. And wow. I can't overemphasize how courteous, sensitive, and professional R' Lawrence is not only with the milah, but with crafting the ceremony that's right for each family.

He was able to make ample room for my wife to hold an active role in the ceremony while in the space of our Orthodox shul and within the daled amot of halachah. The circumcision itself was incredibly quick, efficient and safe, and my son cried for only a few seconds at most. Lastly, he gave very concise aftercare instructions, and was available to call over the following weeks in case we had any questions about what to do.

Our pediatrician later remarked after examining our son that his circumcision was one of the best she's ever seen.

Rabbi Lawrence led a beautiful ceremony for our family yesterday. It was heartfelt, spiritual and incorporated the feelings that we shared with him during our preparatory calls. He made sure to create an atmosphere of warmth, safety and comfort during and after the bris. His aftercare instructions were extensive, detailed and gave us a lot of confidence about our sons recovery. We would highly recommend him to anyone.

Rabbi Lawrence was absolutely outstanding. We found him when it was time for the second bris in my family, and what a world of difference! We spoke with him a few days in advance of the bris and he asked us questions designed to make the ceremony especially meaningful to us personally. He also talked to us about our experience with the last bris to understand what we’d like to keep and change for this one. On the day of the bris, his calm and confident demeanor, and his gentleness with our son, allowed me to enjoy the milestone without being overly stressed and anxious. I would very confidently recommend Rabbi Lawrence to anyone in our area looking for a great mohel. We really appreciate the role he played in our simcha.

So lucky to have been recommended Rabbi Lawrence for my son's bris a few months ago. I am Jewish but my husband is not, so it was important for us to find a mohel who would make us both feel comfortable while also maintaining the sacredness and integrity of the bris. Rabbi Lawrence was warm, welcoming, nonjudgmental, and facilitated a beautiful ceremony that was inclusive of both our families. We had family in-person and on Zoom and both had only great things to say about Rabbi Lawrence and the ceremony. At Rabbi Lawrence's suggestion, we even did an impromptu naming ceremony for our daughter since she was born during the height of covid and missed out on this special milestone. We highly recommend Rabbi Lawrence!

Yesterday, Rabbi Lawrence conducted a brit milah for our son and a baby naming for our daughter (yes, twins!) witnessed by 40 of our friends and family at our apartment. It was a such a beautiful ceremony and he really helped ease the nerves on such an anxious day. His personality and demeanor is exactly what we were looking for and we're so grateful that we chose him as our Mohel and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone looking for an incredible experience. Everyone who was witness had nothing but great things to say about him as well as the ceremony!

Rabbi Lawrence was great! From the ceremony, to the procedure, he did an A+job and was especially so thorough with the aftercare. He really made me feel so comfortable for the entire process.

We recently had the honor of working with Rabbi Lawrence at our son's bris. He made the whole experience very comfortable, worry-free, and meaningful. Rabbi Lawrence created a warm, intimate environment for the ritual, and we will remember it as a very special day. The service was short and accessible to all, and catered to our family's needs. We felt very confident in his work, and were so thankful for a healthy, safe circumcision for our son. Rabbi Lawrence made sure we felt totally equipped to care for our son following the procedure. We can't recommend him highly enough, and hope we have the privilege of working with him again in the future.

Rabbi Lawrence conducted our son’s bris in a thoughtful and dignified manner. As important, he was there every step of the way to reassure my wife and I of the medical aspects of the procedure and how to ensure that our som would heal well. No question was too silly, no concern too small for him. What’s more, he’s a nice guy! I cannot recommend his services enough.

We can’t speak more highly of Rabbi Lawrence. With a Bris comes a lot of questions and concerns. As our Mohel, Rabbi Lawrence did a wonderful job putting our minds at ease and his after-care instructions and availability for any concerns that may arise, gave us the confidence we needed. We can’t recommend him enough and have no doubt future families will find themselves in wonderful hands with his services. Our son’s Bris was all the more special because of Rabbi Lawrence.

Working with Rabbi Lawrence was such a pleasure. His calm demeanor immediately put us at ease and he engaged all of our family members in a meaningful way. We would highly recommend Rabbi Lawrence to anyone planning a Bris.

Great ceremony, great cut! Multiples guests comments on how nice the service was. Also brought nearly all necessary supplies easing the burden on us- which was greatly appreciated
