Competing interests: I occasionally perform non-therapeutic circumcisions in the NHS, although I am unwilling to do so privately. I have an extensive practice as a medical expert, and have reviewed cases where irregularities of consent have been alleged. I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer (Clinical) in Medical Law, with a specialist interest in the law of consent. I occasionally receive paid commissions for lectures, chapters and articles concerning the law and practice of consent, including this one.
