Hagai & Jessica – Brookline MA

We had an amazing experience with our Mohel, rabbi Nechemia Schusterman, for the birth of our first son! We were very nervous as first time parents, but Rabbi Schusterman helped us feel extremely confident and comfortable. He was very patient, thorough and walked us through everything. He is extremely attentive to detail and always made himself available to us (via phone or in person) for any concerns pre, during and post Bris, until complete healing. We highly, highly recommend him and his services- and we can assure you that any expectations you have will be surpassed! He goes above and beyond! -Hagai and Jessica

Highly recommend! We were so beyond impressed with Rabbi Schusterman. Throughout the process, he went above and beyond, starting with the initial evaluation, the day of the Bris as well as follow up post procedure care, constantly checking in and ensuring things were healing as expected. His response time was always impeccable and he was available and reachable. As a medical professional myself, I was extremely impressed with his knowledge, skill and care and he did not shy away from providing informative, medically based information. We felt extremely comfortable with our baby boy in his arms and were well equipped to deal with post procedure care based on his instruction and recommendations. He was kind, personable and approachable and we would highly recommend him to our friends and family!

Rabbi Schusterman provided an incredibly meaningful ceremony for our son at Young Israel of Brookline. It was a very special event for our family, and Rabbi Schusterman was, as they say, “calm, cool, and collected” and very patient as he walked us through after-care instructions. He was easy to reach for any follow-up questions. Rabbi Schusterman’s guidance and warmth were evident throughout the entire process. Thank you so much!

Dear Rabbi,

We just wanted you to know that the pediatrician saw our son today. His brit milah was 15 days ago. The doctor said, “This looks great, whoever did this knows what they are doing.” And to us he seems to be healing very well. Thought you’d like to know.

Thank you very much!

All the best, 

Esther and Osher Galibov

“We are so grateful we got to have Rabbi Schusterman do our baby’s bris this past February. We heard he’s the best in the business and we totally agree. Not only was the Rabbi reassuring and a source of comfort on the day of, but he checked in multiple times to make sure everything was going well after as well.

He is very knowledgeable and super experienced, and offered a lot of relief during this stressful time. Gd willing if we should be so lucky and blessed, we would love to have him do our future sons Bris milahs again and again.”

Rabbi Schusterman,
We want to thank you for the wonderful job you did at Toby’s circumcision. All our guests told us that it was a great event and they all complimented our mohel and the ceremony. We were especially impressed with your extensive directions and the fact that you followed up – calling and writing to check up – on Toby (and on us!) and to make sure we knew what to look for and how to care for him.
We would highly recommend you to anyone who needs a mohel! We definitely give you 10 stars of approval!

Rabbi Schusterman is an excellent moyle and I would recommend him to anyone in need. He is professional, courteous and competent. He made sure to explain the procedure and answer any questions that we had, and spent a significant amount of time after to instruct us on the proper aftercare. He would check in with us over the phone over the next few days and even made a follow up visit to our home to address a question we had. We would use his services again in the future and recommend him to friends and family.

Rabbi Schusterman is the only Mohel that we would use. He made us feel comfortable from the beginning of our experience with our first son up through our third son. He is thorough, health conscious, and hallachically oriented. He is also approachable and friendly, going above and beyond the “call of duty” not only before, but during and after the Bris as well. I don’t know of anyone else who takes the time to come and visit the baby at home afterwards to make sure the boy is healing properly. He took the time to make my wife and I as comfortable as new parents can be during the entire process and never once made us feel that our phone calls were too much or disruptive. He even took the time to show me his instruments and explain how he sterilizes each one of them to medical standards. His patience and compassion are astounding. He set my sons up for the start of a strong Jewish life and I am grateful for everything he does.

Hi Rabbi Schusterman,
Folks can definitely contact us for  a reference. 
We were very happy we chose Rabbi Schusterman to do our son’s Bris.  Rabbi Schusterman took the time to help us understand what to expect before, during and after the ceremony. He was very attentive to our son’s needs and was patient. We had guests from all different backgrounds and he did a good job  explaining what he was doing during the ceremony and brought a lightheartedness to it. We also appreciated his constant communication with us as our son healed. He was very responsive to all of our questions and got back to us quickly. The fast cloting bandage he uses was also amazing.  Wythe healing process was so much simpler than we expected (and less traumatizing for first time parents). We will happily recommend him to anyone looking for a Mohel.

Rebbeca and Avihu Yona Brookline MA

It was a great pleasure to have Rabbi Schusterman as Mohel for our baby boy.

We were looking for an experienced Mohel and Rabbi Schusterman was highly recommended.

The Bris went very smoothly, we felt that our little boy is in very good hands.
The high hygienic standards, organization and the attention to our questions along the way made us feel very secure.

Most importantly, Rabbi Schusterman visited us at home and guided us through the phone, numerous times, to make sure that the healing process is going well,

as young parents this was super important!
It is worth mentioning that during the routine checkups of the first six months of the baby three different personals (two doctors and a nurse practitioner) spontaneously  complemented the circumcision.
We highly recommend  Rabbi Schusterman and we are grateful for him being with us at this big day of Simcha.
