Troy Stoeber, MD, is an Oregon-based pediatric physician.
Contents
Early life and education
Dr. Stoeber was reared in the Midwestern state of Iowa. There is about a 95 percent chance that he was circumcised as an infant. If that is the case, then he would qualify for the circumcised doctors list.
Dr. Stoeber completed his undergraduate degree in biology at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska. He remained at Creighton for medical school before receiving specialty training in pediatrics at the University of Kansas School of Medicine — Wichita.
Personal life
Dr. Stoeber has lived in Oregon for more than two decades. Dr. Stoeber and his wife Robin have 7 children between them. In his free time, he enjoys exercising, traveling, reading, and volunteering in community activities.
Parental education
Dr. Stoeber has kindly provided an informative video about circumcision of the newborn for parents, however there are some issues:
- Dr. Stoeber refers to the AAP Circumcision Policy Statement that was published in 2012. That statement was heavily criticized by many commentors. It was an embarrassment to the AAP, so it was allowed to expire, which occurred in 2017. It does not represent the present position of the AAP, which now has no official policy on circumcision.
- Dr. Stoeber calls the foreskin "normal skin", but he fails to mention the intensive innervation of the ridged band, that makes it erogenous tissue.
- Dr. Stoeber discusses the requirement to restrain the baby boy during the circumcision amputation, but fails to mention that the device used is the circumstraint.
- Dr. Stoeber asserts that parents have a right to grant consent for circumcision of a newborn boy. This is apparently based on a claim made by the Ad Hoc Task Force of the AAP in 1975.[1] The AAP is a medical trade association and does not have authority to make law. A medically-unnecessary amputation of a functional foreskin without consent of the victim is disturbingly similar to aggravated battery.[2]
- Dr. Stoeber makes no mention of the multiple physiological functions of the foreskin, so one wonders if he is truly informed. This information is relevant and deserves mention.
- The first principal of bioethics is "First, do no harm",[3] now more commonly expressed as non-maleficence, however Dr. Stoeber is aware of the harm inherent in circumcision, yet continues to do them.
Dr. Stoeber has announced a book about the harm of child circumcision, but it has not yet been published, so it cannot be evaluated.
Dr. Stoeber's name does not appear on the list of intact friendly doctors in Oregon sponsored by Your Whole Baby.[4]
