Our Surrogate Concierge approach

Because we are not a surrogacy agency, Surrogate Concierge has access to more U.S. surrogates than any other organization in the world. When matching intended parents, our Parent Choice model ensures that a surrogate is available before you financially commit to a program. We take pride in how we advocate for our intended parents from the first step.

Here’s what you can expect from our process:

  • Working closely with an experienced case manager who advocates for you

  • Being presented with surrogates who match your specific criteria for a match

  • A short match time of 0-3 months

We educate you and support you through the surrogacy process with all the guidance you need to feel confident in your choice.

The Parent Choice Model

At Surrogate Concierge, we use a Parent Choice model to help intended parents find available surrogates who match their top criteria easily and quickly.

The ‘Old School’ Agency Model

  • A single-agency commitment

  • Up-front payment of one-third to one-half of the agency fee (on average $30,000 or more) before they will show any surrogate profiles

  • Bumped back to a long wait list if you don’t like the single option they provide 

  • On average, over a year-long wait until matched with a surrogate 

The Parent Choice Model

  • A designated case manager who is committed to every step of your journey

  • A search across over 80 surrogacy agencies

  • Surrogates who meet ASRM guidelines and are likely to be approved by your doctor 

  • Potential to match within 0-3 months of starting with Surrogate Concierge

  • Only sign and pay with a surrogacy agency once they have your preferred gestational carrier available to carry your baby immediately

Our Surrogate Concierge team

Our Surrogate Concierge team includes compassionate, educated, and knowledgeable case managers with over 25 years of experience. Each team member knows the ins and outs of Surrogate Concierge’s Parent Choice model and our more than 80 partner agencies. They work daily to be an intended parent’s advocate and primary resource for all things surrogacy during their time with Surrogate Concierge.

Thanks to our multinational office, our case managers are culturally sensitive and proficient in various languages to better support hopeful parents of all backgrounds.
