Looking for a mohel in the New York area?
Avner Yunayev trained as a mohel and shochet at the Shehebar Sephardic Institute in Jerusalem (he is listed here) and has also earned a doctorate of pharmacy from Long Island University.
He can accommodate the needs of families of all backgrounds and he speaks English, Hebrew, Russian and Bukharian.
He is patient, gentle and reasonable.

i guess once you learn one it's basically the same skill to learn the other. just a different size knife.
I went to school with a guy that became many things, a shochet, a mohel, a dentist, an artist, a magician, a techelet expert (perhaps "the" techelet expert), etc.
Here is a good link to a post about him - http://www.treppenwitz.com/2008/04/feeling-like-a.html

Mark, did that jack of all trades move to Efrat in the late 1980s?
Oh, silly me, I see you left a link, and it is Dr. Greenspan.
i remember treppenwitz's post about him. he emailed me once.
LoZ: just a different size knife.
Not at all. One slices off, or is done as an inside cut, while the other is from the outside, with a sawing motion, and need not completely sever the extremity.
There's a Russian OB-GYN in my shul who wants to learn hilchos milah, so he can convince his non-religious patients to let him do a milah, rather than an in-hospital circumcision at birth, or nothing at all.
