Palm Beach Gardens has drawn a steady wave of corporate relocations in recent years, with families moving down for a new role, often on a tight timeline and without much runway to build a local network first. If a baby arrives in the middle of that transition, planning a bris becomes one more unfamiliar task layered on top of an already demanding move.

Dr. Andrew Krinsky, a Yale-trained, board-certified gynecologic surgeon and religiously ordained certified mohel, has worked with a number of Palm Beach Gardens families in exactly this position.

You Don’t Need Local Connections to Start Planning

A common assumption among newly relocated families is that they need an established synagogue or local Jewish network before they can plan a proper bris, but that’s not the case. Dr. Krinsky is trained to lead the entire Bris and Baby Naming Ceremony independently, which means a family who just moved to Palm Beach Gardens for a new job can still have a complete, meaningful ceremony without first building out a local community.

Fitting Planning Around a New Job’s Demands

Between onboarding at a new role, possibly still traveling for work, and managing a household mid-move, time for extensive planning is often limited. Dr. Krinsky is comfortable handling most of the planning conversation efficiently by phone or email, which fits well for parents managing a demanding new position alongside a newborn.

Holding the Ceremony in a Temporary or New Home

Whether your family is in a temporary corporate housing situation, a newly purchased home, or still settling into a rental while house-hunting continues, the ceremony can happen wherever you’re currently staying. Dr. Krinsky travels to whatever location a family chooses, so an unfamiliar or still-unpacked space isn’t a barrier.

Managing a Guest List Split Between Two Locations

It’s common for relocated Palm Beach Gardens families to have a guest list split between new local connections, like coworkers, and family and old friends flying in from wherever the family relocated from. Coordinating both groups within the fixed 8th day window takes some advance notice, so reaching out as soon as you have a due date helps maximize how many people can realistically attend.

Building Community Around This First Milestone

For a lot of relocated families, the bris ends up being one of the first significant gatherings in their new home, sometimes introducing new coworkers or neighbors to a tradition they’ve never seen before. Dr. Krinsky explains the ceremony as it happens, which helps new local connections feel comfortable attending even without prior familiarity.

What Doesn’t Depend on How Settled You Are

Regardless of how recently your family relocated to Palm Beach Gardens, the ceremony carries its full structure, meaning, and medical care exactly as it would for a family that’s lived in the area for decades.
