Dr. '''Thomas Kreutzig-Langenfeld''' has been a specialist in urology since 1993 and has been a urologist since 1995. He is also the author of several medical-scientific books. Until January 01, 2018 he was a member of the scientific advisory board of the "URO-News" (Springer Medicine). As an experienced urologist, Dr. Thomas Kreutzig-Langenfeld knows about the [http://www.intactaus.org/information/functionsoftheforeskin/ important functions ] of the male [[foreskin]] and pleads for a medical practice that does justice to this knowledge. The education about pre-treatment methods, especially in [[phimosis]], is a major concern for him.<ref>[https://intaktiv.de/zwei-neue-intaktiv-botschafter-bereichern-das-team/Zwei neue intaktiv-Botschafter bereichern das Team]</ref>
Since August 2019 he is [[intaktiv]] ambassador. As a doctor and intaktiv ambassador, he therefore says that [[circumcision]] should be obsolete for no medical reason and that urologists should be much more sensitive to this issue.
|Text=As a long-time urologist with university education, I am very often concerned with the question of the need for circumcision. For me, it is always negative how negligently the indication for circumcision is handled especially in children.
Circumcision without [[medical indication ]] should be obsolete. The foreskin is not a meaningless [[flap of skin]], but a [[Foreskin sensitivity| highly sensitive organ]], which should not be removed easily. Urologists should be much more sensitive to this issue than they are at the moment.
I also openly criticize the attitude and the procedure of those urologists, who give the impression that there is only an all-or-nothing principle in circumcision. Of course, thrifty circumcisions or plastic surgeries are possible in the case of an operation-requiring tightness and should also be offered in the context of education by all urologists.
