Gentile:[1] A Gentile may not circumcise a Jew even if the Gentile is circumcised. Nonetheless, if a Gentile performs the circumcision then some Poskim[2] rule that it is not necessary to repeat it a second time. However, other Poskim[3] rule that it is necessary to go back and perform Hatafas Dam Bris and so is the main opinion.
