Welcome to Golden Surrogacy! Our Founder & Program Director, Frank Golden was once in your shoes as an Intended Parent. He inspires and leads his team to guide every journey as if you were a member of their family. Helping his clients become parents through surrogacy is very personal and close to Frank’s heart and it shows through his tireless work and dedication. We look forward to having the honor and privilege of assisting you with your very special journey through surrogacy.
Below, Golden has outlined the process by compiling a simple and easy-to-follow Surrogacy Timeline. Our goal is to make your experience as stress-free as possible while you prepare for your new life as a parent.
Your journey begins by having an initial consultation with our team. At this time you’ll be able to ask questions and gain a better understanding of the timeline, costs, and Golden’s unique process. Once your Intended Parent profile is complete Golden will conduct a detailed in-take meeting. This important step in the process allows you the opportunity to identify additional preferences to create the most ideal scenario for your family building experience.
Surrogate recruiting cycle begins! A custom matching timeline goal is assigned to your journey dependent upon the program you’ve selected, and any additional criteria for consideration. Surrogate candidates are recruited, interviewed, and screened to be your Match. (6-12 months)
After Golden has identified a potential Surrogate, your dedicated Care Team will help facilitate a Matching Conference call. Both parties must agree to move forward together and finalize a mutual match. Once official, Golden will notify your fertility clinic and an appointment will be set for the Surrogate to meet your Reproductive Endocrinologist for in-person screening.
The Reproductive Endocrinologist will examine your Surrogate in-person prior to granting final medical clearance for her to continue in the program. This appointment must typically be scheduled to coincide with a specific day of her menstrual cycle, and therefore could take 4-8 weeks to schedule and complete, post matching.
Once your Surrogate has been given official medical clearance, the legal process may commence. Golden will pair you with the best Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) attorney – licensed in the state where delivery will take place, to represent your interests and to draft the agreement between you and your Surrogate.
The drafting attorney will send a “letter of legal clearance” to the fertility center upon finalization of the agreement. This provides approval for the medication protocol to begin and a tentative embryo transfer date to be assigned. Your Surrogate will take medications for 15-20 days on average, following 1-2 monitoring appointments, and then your embryo transfer!
Your dedicated Care Team tracks the pregnancy, and the health of your Surrogate very closely. Golden is in continuous contact with both Intended Parent(s) and Surrogate to ensure a harmonious and pleasant experience throughout the entire journey! Care Team members, as well as the Agency Director, are always available via phone, text, or email. During the second trimester, Golden will initiate the process of establishing birthrights with your legal representation. The delivery hospital is also notified of the impending surrogacy delivery, and a tour or conference call is coordinated.
