FP can perform the circumcision

I enjoyed Dr. Lerner's brief review but was puzzled by the question of who should perform the circumcision. The most obvious and one of the most frequent answers was ignored. It should be done by the family physician who delivered the baby, is caring for him in the nursery, and will be caring for him another couple of decades.
