The Surrogacy Consultant

Welcome!

Making the decision to build your family through surrogacy can be an emotional process. It may seem incredibly overwhelming and impersonal, especially when coupled with infertility struggles, financial concerns, and perhaps even some grief. That is where The Surrogacy Consultant comes in. Our Intended Parents include heterosexual couples, single parents, and LGBTQ+ families.

Dr. Crider has been involved in the infertility surrogacy world for a number of years and recognized a need to have a more personalized approach, moving away from a typical "agency" feel. Drawing from this experience, she wanted to create a surrogacy program focused on education, encouraging communication, and offering support from start to finish. Because The Surrogacy Consultant accepts a limited number of clients a year, more time can be spent with both parents and surrogates.

We understand that the cost of surrogacy is an important aspect to your planning. We believe in transparency, with no hidden costs, and offer a number of packages (listed below) that can be tailored to your needs.

Finally, we want you to be as educated about the surrogacy process as possible. We are happy to review any of this information with you by phone or video conference.

Thank you for entrusting your journey with Dr. Crider, The Surrogacy Consultant. It is such an honor to be a part of your family-building experience!
