Four years ago I paid a mohel $500.00. but he did not have a set fee. $500.00 seemed appropriate as he was amazing, especially after the Bris. The bris was on a Friday morning. Shabbat afternoon he walked to our house to check on him, as there had been some health issues with my son when he was born and the bris had been pushed off for a week. the boy was running a slight fever that day. Lo and behold, the mohel appeared at our door motzei Shabbat and again on Sunday morning to check the wound and make sure there wasn’t anything he could do. In retrospect, $500.00 seems a little low in fact.
