Unfortunatley i am going to have to be circumsised due to phimosis, caused by scarring of the frenulum .
To allay my concerns over the surgery the urologist told me the foreskin would grow back .
Witch leads me to question this doctors credability, making a statemeant like that .

Thanks Michael

Your foreskin will not grow back. There is such a thing as foreskin restoration, which is slow stretching of the skin to make it grow back, but you will never get the same thing back.

Get a 2nd opinion. Get a 3rd opinion. Look for options other than circumcision.

Here is a detailed medical journal about phimosis, including photos of an adult circumcision operation (graphic).

In the above article:

I don't see an excellent cosmetic result. I see a bloody, mutilated penis.

Get a 2nd opinion.
