trust Rabbi Shlomo Golish, Certified Mohel
Parents in Lakewood, NJ, often look for a mohel who can combine expertise with a calm, organized presence on such an important day. Based locally in the tri-state area, I perform brissim throughout Lakewood and the surrounding neighborhoods, ensuring each ceremony is meaningful, safe, and respectful.
I’m frequently in Lakewood developments such as Westgate, Chestnut, Raintree, and Coventry, as well as in nearby Jackson, Toms River, Howell, and Brick. Whether your bris takes place at home, in a shul, or at a community simcha hall, I bring the same focus on precision, comfort, and tradition. My role is to ensure the mitzvah is fulfilled properly while keeping parents confident and the baby as comfortable as possible.
Before the bris, I guide families through each step—timing, setup, and special considerations such as honoring relatives or accommodating larger gatherings. On the day itself, I keep the environment warm and respectful, working efficiently so the ceremony flows smoothly without unnecessary delay. Afterward, I provide clear aftercare instructions and remain available for follow-up questions.

Common questions are addressed in the FAQ, and you can explore the Gallery for photos of brissim in various settings.
I’ve worked with families in Lakewood for many years and understand the needs of this growing, diverse community. Whether your bris is small and intimate or a larger gathering, I adapt to your setting and schedule to make the experience as smooth as possible.
If you’d like to confirm availability for a Lakewood bris or discuss your plans, please contact me. It would be my privilege to serve your family with professionalism, warmth, and respect for mesorah.
