The surgeon Dr. Montefiore Jacob 'Monte' Moses[1] (20 July 1841 in Charleston, SC – 11 April 1878 in New York, NY)[2][3] had an office in New York[3] and was a president of the American Pediatric Society.[4]
Note: Please do not confuse him with his eponymous nephew Montefiore J. Moses (1871 – 1940), who was a son of his brother William Moultrie Moses (1843 – 1879).[5]
Circumcision promotion
In 1871, the "Israelite"[6] Moses strongly recommended circumcision as a preventive measure against masturbation. He published an article in which he stated that "Jews were immune to masturbation solely because they were circumcised, and that non-Jews were especially prone to masturbation and to the horrible diseases that allegedly resulted from masturbation solely because they had a foreskin."[7]
