Hi Nathan,
You should question his knowledge. Have you TOLD him that they exist? Because if many of the non-medical vocation-orientated people such as many of those on this board know full right that they exist then a trained urologist most definitely should too. I would consider talking to a G.P about this issue and maybe get referred to another urologist?In my own case of phimosis, I did also ask for a partial circ (my GP knows definitely what one of those is!) but I was recommended the full deal and so that's what I ended up having done a year ago and I'm more than happy with the result. If I were you I wouldn't totally rule out a full circ (unless you have any qualms about reduction in sensitivity etc.) but I personally doubt that your urologist has the knowledge/understanding/attitude for such a task.
Best of luck.

>He says "they don't exist", and to answer my "why?" question (knowing full myself that they are done everywhere..) was "well, they just don't, there's no middle ground.
>I am pretty worried about this guy, first he has a very poor attitude, and 2nd he doesn't even know what a partial circ is. Should I put my future sexual life into his hands? :P
