Crouse's website is a near mirror-image of that of [[Neil Pollock]]'s. Some of the diagram images he uses are exactly the same, and some of the statements are repeated verbatim. Like Pollock, Crouse espouses the [[Mogen]] technique,<ref>{{REFweb
|quote=At Intramed, Dr. Crouse performs the Mogen circumcision technique.

Except for a few changes in wording, Pollock and Crouse's "Parents' Guide to Circumcision" pages are nearly identical, advertizing the [[Mogen]] technique as taking less than a minute, and advertizing identical pain control methods of Tylenol, sugar, and a local anaesthetic injection.<ref name="LessThan1Minute">{{REFweb
|quote=Our procedure takes less than 1 minute. (many times faster than most hospital circumcisions) We use extensive pain control methods including Tylenol, a sugar solution (to reduce pain perception), topical freezing and a local anesthetic injection.

Like [[Neil Pollock]], Pierre Crouse promises the [[Mogen]] technique, along with his pain control methods to be "painless," affirming his customers with his surgical and anaesthesia background.<ref>{{REFweb
|quote=With his surgical and anesthesia background he is convinced that the Mogen circumcision technique with 4 steps pain control protocol is the most effective and painless method available.
