Bris Milah Services in Hudson County, NJ — Rabbi Shlomo Golish
Hudson County is home to a diverse and vibrant Jewish population, from the historic streets of Hoboken to the growing communities in Jersey City, Bayonne, and Union City. Whether you’re welcoming your first child or your family has celebrated many brissim, I provide expert mohel services that blend halachic integrity, surgical precision, and a warm, personal approach.
With well over 15 years of experience and advanced training in Israel, I have served families across all backgrounds — Ashkenazi, Sephardic, Chabad, Modern Orthodox, and traditional. I adapt the ceremony to your minhagim while ensuring that every detail meets the highest standards of hygiene, safety, and tradition. Whether your bris takes place in a home, synagogue, event hall, or hospital, my goal is to make the day smooth, memorable, and meaningful for everyone present.
Hudson County’s Jewish life has been steadily growing, with active shuls, day schools, and community centers. I proudly serve families in Weehawken, North Bergen, Secaucus, and surrounding neighborhoods, as well as nearby towns in Bergen and Essex counties. My central location allows me to travel quickly to you, even on short notice. See more in FAQ.
One of the highlights of the bris ceremony is the giving of the Hebrew name, a moment that connects your son to generations of heritage. Some families choose to honor a loved one, while others select names for their biblical or historical meaning. Popular choices include Avraham, Shlomo, and Yaakov, while some opt for distinctive names such as Matisyahu, Yedidya, or Zevulun. My Hebrew Boy Names resource offers hundreds of names with meanings, origins, and variations to help inspire your decision.

Whether you are in Hoboken, Jersey City, Bayonne, Union City, or anywhere in Hudson County, I would be honored to perform your son’s bris milah with the utmost skill, care, and respect for tradition.
