Meet Rabbi Azriel Zuckerman

מוהל מומחה

Rabbi Azriel Zuckerman’s path to becoming a Mohel was paved by family legacy and a calling to serve. Inspired by the memory of his uncle and a family tradition of craftsmanship, or being “good with one’s hands”, Rabbi Zuckerman transitioned from the halls of the Yeshiva to the sacred work of Milah.

A Legacy of Training & Certification:

  • Initial Certification: Originally certified in 2013 by the renowned Rabbi Yehuda Giat in Eretz Yisrael.

  • Advanced Clinical Mentorship: To reach the highest level of technical proficiency, he underwent intensive training under Rabbi Yitzchak Fischer, mastering the most delicate and complex aspects of circumcision.

  • Global Experience: With a practice spanning 17 cities—from Brooklyn to Boston and now Chicago—he has served as a Milah Consultant for the Bais Din of the VHQ and the Manhattan Beit Din.

Rabbi Zuckerman uses his G-d-given skills and advanced training to unite the Jewish people, one Bris at a time.

I can't begin to explain how impressed I am by Rabbi Zuckerman. He was the Mohel for our second son. He impressed us well before the actual Bris. He came to check up on our baby, during the visit he showed impeccable bed side manners, really caring for our baby. H was thorough in answering any of our questions, and in explaining the ins and outs of the upcoming Bris. On the day of the Bris he took care of all of the baby's needs. He came multiple times to check up on the healing of our son, even coming late at night, when we called about a small concern. Rabbi Zuckerman really takes care of all your Bris needs! Thank you Rabbi Zuckerman.

We were so grateful to be able to have Rabbi Zuckerman serve as our baby's Mohel! From the minute we booked him we were glad we did. He provided lots of information and patient explanation, traveled to check our baby before and after the Bris, and showed up to our son's Bris with the most calming energy! He was caring and competent from start to finish!
