[[File:DOC george-dennison-md-1.jpg|thumb|George C. Denniston]]
[[{{FULLPAGENAME}}]], {{MD}}, {{MPH}}, is the founder and President of [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision (D.O.C.)]]. He is a graduate of {{UNI|Princeton University|PU}}, the {{UNI|University of Pennsylvania|UPenn}} School of Medicine, and the [https://hsph.harvard.edu/ Harvard School of Public Health]. He is a former Associate Medical Director of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and a retired professor in the [https://familymedicine.uw.edu/ Department of Family Medicine ] at the {{UNI|University of Washington|UW}}. Dr. Denniston founded [[D.O.C.]] in 1995 to eradicate the unethical and unnecessary practice of partial penile [[amputation]] of children ([[circumcision]]), not only because of the harm that it has done to millions of American boys and men, but also because it has damaged the reputation of the medical profession.<ref>{{REFweb
