Unlike most surrogacy agencies, Premium Surrogacy only works with one fertility clinic – Santa Monica Fertility Center, led by a world-renowned fertility specialist, Dr. John Jain., This means that you can be matched with one of Premium Surrogacy’s medically and psychologically prescreened Surrogates immediately. Dr. Jain and his team will continue to support you throughout the entire surrogacy process, from surrogate matching to delivery.
Information for Intended Parents at Santa Monica Fertility
Medical and Psychological Evaluations of Surrogates
Unlike other surrogacy agencies, who typically begin the process of medical and psychological screening once a surrogate is chosen, Premium Surrogacy surrogates are medically cleared for an immediate match, having completed screening by a fertility specialist, a high-risk obstetrician, and a psychologist.
Consultation and Access to Surrogate Profiles
Once you have completed a consultation with Dr. Jain and have been approved for our surrogacy program, you will be given access to our surrogate profiles.
Parent and Surrogate Match Meeting
Premium Surrogacy will facilitate the matching meeting between you and the surrogate, which will normally take place at our Santa Monica Fertility clinic. If by chance you are not able to meet in person, we will assist in arranging a Skype meeting instead.
Legal Matters Pertaining to Surrogacy
After the surrogate and intended parents match and mutually agree to work together, Premium Surrogacy will recommend attorneys in order to draft the legal contract between surrogate and intended parents.
Embryo Transfer
Once the legal contracts are in place, we can proceed with the embryo transfer. A representative of Premium Surrogacy will accompany your surrogate to all fertility appointments. If you are unable to attend the appointment, we will provide timely feedback or can arrange video participation.
Support During Pregnancy
Premium Surrogacy will be in close contact with your surrogate throughout the pregnancy and will assist her with all obstetric appointments. She will also have monthly support meetings with a psychologist and will be given nutritional counseling throughout the pregnancy. Communication expectations between you and the surrogate will be established during the match meeting. Our Surrogacy Director, Amber Danley, and our International Patient Coordination Director, Zoe Fang, will also be available to you throughout the surrogacy process.
