Most intended parents are asked to independently find a surrogate through one of many surrogate agencies. This means dealing with another set of personnel, managers and attorneys. Once a surrogate candidate is found, she must still pass medical and psychological screening in order to proceed. A good percentage of surrogates fail to meet medical criteria and are discontinued at this point, requiring the intended parents to start all over again and bear additional costs.
In contrast, PFC works with local clinics to screen and qualify surrogates for immediate matching. All surrogates undergo background checks, home study visits, medical clearance, and medical clearance by an independent High-Risk Obstetrician and Psychologist. Surrogates are also pre-screened and qualified for health insurance. This integrative approach continues through fertility treatment into pregnancy and delivery whereby the same team continues to monitor the surrogate and interface with you and the obstetrician in order to provide a seamless and enjoyable pregnancy and birth experience.
Whether you are looking to use a surrogate or planning to become one, the steps of a surrogacy journey require tremendous commitment, planning and care.
Because we specialize in surrogacy, our experienced team can give you everything you need, all under one roof, including all of the necessary screening and medical tests for both intended parents and potential surrogates.
