Keith Ramsey is a doctor of pediatrics and adolescent medicine. He posted a link repeating Brian J. Morris' publication on Mayo Clinic's Proceedings publication.[1] Following criticism from intactivists and others, he posted a request for supportive comments from others, and is apparently defending his posting of Brian Morris' study. He is currently deleting valid and well-referenced comments, and blocking all dissent.

“ Ramsey's Defensive Post on Facebook
Defending Our Facebook Site

I am under attack by anti-circumcision activists. I posted a reference to a study on the safety of circumcision. After that I had hundreds of anti-circumcision individuals and organized groups attack our clinic's facebook site. Almost all of them are from other countries, where circumcision is not widely practiced. They do not wish to only express their opinions, but want to punish, harass, intimidate and destroy anyone who does not agree with them. I do not agree with their tactics and will not be intimidated into removing the post that mentions circumcision. I think they have the right to their opinion. However, they do not think anyone with a differing view has a right to an opinion or to post it.

I would appreciate anyone who can add positive reviews to our site, to help balance their negative and slanderous ones. Thanks.

Postscript

The 2012 AAP Circumcision Policy Statement attracted intense ongoing critical comment from many sources. The AAP did not reaffirm the statement and allowed it to expire in 2017. The AAP has not published a replacement statement, so the medical trade association now no current position on circumcision.

Jacobson et al. (2021) collected circumcision statistics from the Kids' Inpatient Database from 2002 to 2016. They reported that the incidence of non-therapeutic neonatal circumcision has "decreased significantly over time", with the incidence of circumcision in the United States, being 52.1 percent in 2016.[3]
