Oy. You need to call a personal injury lawyer in whom you have confidence. Watch out for legal time limits that can bar your son's right to recover.
If another doctor has told you that a mistake was made which has resulted in permanent injury, then you may sue for damages on your son's behalf. Contact me directly.
Please contact me to discuss the situation. If you are claiming malpractice, your claim MUST be supported by the opinion of a doctor who is an 'expert' in that field of medicine, who is prepared to testify in court that there was medical malpractice, meaning your treatment fell below the acceptable standard of care and caused the damage or death. You'll also need the testimony of another mohel regarding the religious issues. Neither your opinion about malpractice, nor mine, is relevant or 'proof' of malpractice. You are not supposed to file suit without having that expert opinion available. Consult with other doctor[s] and mohel[s] to see if they are willing to provide that opinion and testimony, or you can contact independent experts for that purpose. Then, please contact me to discuss the merits and value of your claims.
