The Western Australia Medical Association is the medical trade association for medical doctors who practice medicine in the state of West Australia.
Dr Mark Duncan-Smith, the president of the association, issued a warning to parents on 10 December 2021 regarding non-therapeutic child circumcision. Dr. Duncan-Smith said parents should only "follow through with the procedure if there is a valid medical reason."[1]
The warning followed a disastrous day (Tuesday, 7 December 2021) in Perth, WA in which a two-year-old boy died after a non-therapeutic circumcision and his eight-month old brother almost bled out due to hemorrhage following non-therapeutic circumcisions.[2]
