I'm not Jewish (per say)... but my husband is Israeli Jewish.
We prractice some Jewish traditions... the brit being one of them.
When we had a DS (18 months ago)... we had trouble finding a mohel to do a brit because I wasn't Jewish.
Someone recommended a mohel, who was willing to do it, if it was a private ceromony... which is what I had intended on anyway. There were no blessings or prayers done. It was all done very quickly, and very little distress from my son (who would cry more when he had a nappy change).
I don't know his name/number right now... but it is the same mohel that Yael (mod) used... so she might have his details handy. If not, I can find out this evening. He is in Balaclava... but if you pick him up - he will go to any suburb.
I'm assuming you are in Melbourne???
The other alternative is a Jewish doctor who works from a medical centre in Noble Park, and another in Hampton Park. He has a website: circumcisioncentre.com.au
(some of his fee is covered by medicare - whereas the mohel we used is not)
hope this is of help to you
