What parents say
He was meticulous with his instrument setup, washed his hands and ensured the area was clean/sterile for the procedure. When he spoke to the audience he had a kind yet commanding voice that everyone could hear, and he said beautiful things about the meaning of the bris, why we perform this ceremony, and contextualized the ceremony for the entire audience regardless of their background. During the act he was quick, and performed the actual circumcision efficiently and with a practiced hand. He included our local Chabad Rabbi in the ceremony, and honored him with the opportunity to say a few words as well. For the weeks after, he was very available and communicative via WhatsApp to ensure our boy had the appropriate aftercares and wound healing. All in all we are so happy to have had Rabbi Slavaticki as our mohel and we’ll be calling him back if we are blessed enough to have another son!

Not only Rabbi Slavaticki performed the Bris of our grandson quickly, cleanly, with all the hygiene, but also in such a friendly and informal manner that we all still recollect this day with joy. We had similar comments from our friends who joined us that day. Needless to say, our grandson recovered very quickly and without the slightest complication.
Makhail and IrinaRabbi Slaviticki surpassed all our expectations in a mohel. Not only was he cordial and professional, he went out of his way to provide excellent care before, during, and even in the weeks following the bris. The ceremony was beautiful, Rabbi Slaviticki did a great job, and everything healed quickly and cleanly. We highly recommend him!!!
Yaakov Poleמי שקורא את ההמלצה הזו שידע שהיא נכתבה מכל הלב בהערכה רבה לרבי מנחם, שמל את הבן שלנו במרץ 2023. הליווי והתמיכה הצמודים של הרב התחילו עוד מבית החולים, לוודא שיש את כל המדדים הנכונים כדי לקיים את הברית. ביום הברית עצמו הרב הרגיע והכיל אותנו עם כל הלחץ וההתרגשות שלנו ההורים, הכין את התינוק בנחת וניהל את האירוע בפנים מאירות, זריזות ומקצועיות יוצאת דופן. אנחנו מודים על הליווי הצמוד, התמיכה והזמינות של הרב לכל שאלה או ספק לאורך כל התהליך. הרגשנו את האכפתיות האמתית והשליחות. זכות גדולה ואשרינו שזכינו לרב מוהל שכזה. בע״ה שירבו שמחות לכל עם ישראל.
דביר דריימןMy wife and I were not sure to do the Brit-Mila in Chicago or wait to go back to France and do it with our mohel, family and friends. Rav Menachem was highly recommended and we decided to go with him. That was a great decision, not only he performed one of the best Brit-Mila I have ever experienced but he managed to create a very cozy and unforgettable atmosphere at the temple. He showed carefulness and interest in the health of our son Gabriel Aaron and texting us regularly to ask out his healing. We are grateful to have found him and he will definitely be part of our lives for ever.

Rabbi Menahem Slavaticki was fantastic. We feel like fate brought us together and we couldn’t be happier with our Brit Milah experience.
We had a different mohel lined up but since our baby arrived a week after his due date, we had to scramble to find a mohel on short notice. We live a 4 hour drive away from Chicago and Rabbi Slavaticki was available and willing to make the drive out to us in order to perform the bris. He prepared us for the procedure and the aftercare instructions well in advance and he was patient and willing to answer any questions we had. On the day of the bris, despite his long distance to travel he was punctual (early), and arrived with a big smile to greet us and our families. He worked with us to ensure we had the appropriate setup and was very flexible with the flow with when to start the ceremony. He was meticulous with his instrument setup, washed his hands and ensured the area was clean/sterile for the procedure.
