    We are extremely happy and lucky to have gone through our 2 journeys with the help of The Fertility Agency. We started just before Covid and matched with an amazing surrogate - a woman who soon enough became a key figure, soulmate and close friend how we deeply love and cherish. She gave birth to our son and daughter in two journeys. The whole experience was supportive and positive - we were

    We started our surrogacy journey three years ago. We interviewed several agencies and compared costs while understanding our gut feelings. We live in the UK and it is difficult to have a surrogacy journey when you are so far away, you loose your sense of control as there isn’t much you can actually do to move things forward. The Fertility Agency came highly recommended from our contact at San

  • Meghan FloydAug 2022Surrogate

    My experience with The Fertility Agency has been beyond amazing. I am a gestational surrogate and just delivered last week. My journey has been everything I hoped it would be. I had such a great experience that I decided to seek employment with the agency. I put a lot of thought and research into the agency I chose. The fact that everyone on their team has either been a surrogate, IP, or affected

  • Jacob PitaroJan 2022Intended Parent

    What an amazing surrogacy journey we experienced with The Fertility Agency. Pat, Heather, Lauri and the whole team were so professional and attentive. They helped us to find the best surrogate that we could ever ask for. Every question we had was quickly answered and any issue was immediately handled in the most professional way. They made sure to maintain a good connection between us and the

    There is no room for doubt at all, they are amazing. The personal attitude, the experience, the professionals who accompany you throughout the process, and especially a lot of recommendations from friends and people we know. All of these made us as IPs to choose them as our agency. They matched us with a surrogate that was a perfect match for us. Throughout the process Lauri, Kathryn and Michelle

    I am a very grateful intended parent who worked with Lauri and her team at The Fertility Agency. We were matched in short order with the most incredible gestational surrogate who gave us a perfect, health baby girl! Working with the agency was a joy and they handled all the challenges right along side us. It was reassuring to have their support and guidance all along the journey. Thank you, TFA!

    I am a GS who had my first journey through The Fertility Agency and I’m currently starting my second with them after having such a fantastic first journey. I worked with Cortney and Michelle as my case manager. They were both fantastic. The process was easy to follow, communication was never lacking (even on the occasional weekend). Clinic clearance, psych eval, insurance review was quick and

    I used The Fertility Agency for my first surrogacy, and I have had a great experience! My surrogacy coordinator, Cortney Price, has been great to work with, and I have felt supported throughout my entire journey. I would recommend them if you are interested in becoming a surrogate!
