Donor Concierge has access to more U.S. surrogates than any other organization in the world, and when matching intended parents, our Parent Choice model ensures that a surrogate is available before you financially commit to a program.
Our Donor Concierge surrogacy process is broken down into three main steps
We work with more than 80 trusted agencies whose gestational carriers reside in surrogate-friendly states, giving us the upper hand in matching you quickly with someone who:
-
Meets all American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) guidelines
-
Meets your clinic's requirements
-
Is currently available to carry your baby
How the Donor Concierge surrogacy process works
Step 1
Your Donor Concierge case manager starts their search
Your Donor Concierge case manager will review profiles from the country’s top surrogacy agencies and, within a few weeks, will find:
-
A trustworthy surrogate candidate who meets all of the ASRM guidelines and the specific requirements of your fertility doctor and clinic
-
A surrogate who is available, and carefully selected from one of our vetted partner agencies.
Step 2
You partner with your case manager to review your candidate
Next, your Donor Concierge case manager will send you a detailed profile of a qualified, available, candidate. All potential surrogates will meet ASRM guidelines and are likely to be medically approved by your doctor.
Your case manager will be available to help answer any surrogacy-related questions.
Step 3
Your case manager will contact the surrogacy agency with your desired match
Once you feel excited about a potential surrogate, your Donor Concierge case manager will schedule a meeting with you and your surrogate so that you can ensure she is the right match before taking next step in your surrogacy process.

Benefits and cost savings
We understand that alongside the excitement that comes with your surrogate search, there may also be some anxiety or apprehension – this is completely normal, and you are not alone. Our Standard and Preferred Surrogate Search packages allow you to feel confident and calm while we begin to introduce you to potential surrogates within a few weeks.
Our goal is to instill you with peace and confidence during your surrogate search and to answer any questions about your surrogate cost and benefits. This also allows you to feel self-assured that you’re making the right choice before investing financially or emotionally in an agency or surrogate.
Our Preferred Surrogate Search includes the same exhaustive search of more than 80 surrogate agency partners for potential candidates. With your preferences in mind, your designated case manager will ensure that all potential candidates live in surrogacy-friendly states and meet ASRM guidelines. Throughout your surrogacy search, we will also answer questions about how much a surrogate costs, offer coaching as you weigh which surrogate is the best for you, and liaise with surrogacy agencies to ask follow-up questions about the surrogate candidates you find most promising.
Additionally, we offer:
-
Faster matching times than working with an agency so you can choose a gestational carrier within the first few weeks of your surrogate search
-
Presentation of available surrogates who meet ASRM and your doctor's guidelines
-
Candidates who have gone through an in-house review by our medical team and meet our strict criteria
-
Temporary hold on available surrogate candidates while medical records are reviewed by your Reproductive Endocrinologist (subject to agency policy)

Arranging a meeting with the surrogate candidate (per the agency’s policies) via video call or phone

Donor Concierge compensation model
Our independent surrogacy search service is built to support your family building process.
Donor Concierge is an independent search service whose experts pull from its robust network of resources to match you with the right surrogate for you and your family. Donor Concierge is compensated by the families we support, not through any agency partnerships or support. Because we are not paid by agencies, we review surrogates from all agencies equally to find you the best match. Our goal from Day 1 is to add extraordinary value to your Surrogate search with limited additional cost. You will pay a one-time, flat fee that will cover our exhaustive search of 80+ trusted agencies. Feel free to ask your case manager any specific questions you may have about our services and cost.
