What is the offending organism? That should give you a clue as to why the boy keeps getting UTIs. Since your son's urinary tract is normal, we need to figure out what is causing the infections. It's not the foreskin.
As others have said, and for all the reasons you kept your son intact in the first place, it's not a good idea to circumcise a baby.
I'll be happy to work with you on this. You can call me at 415-488-9883.
Sincerely,
