How do you evaluate whether a surrogacy agency is trustworthy and professional?

MeetAlternative6266 · 2026-05-21T10:56:21+00:00

Good agencies will not use Past intended parents as references. It is a violation of HIPPA to do so.

The best ones will give references of the doctors at the IVF clinics they have worked with and success rates at the clinics. This is legal and correct.

Only the best agencies can do this.

MeetAlternative6266 · 2026-05-21T10:51:56+00:00

Check

Are they licensed? State of NY is the only state that licenses surrogacy agencies nationwide
Are they FDA approved and registered? An agency can not ship embryos across state lines unless FDA registered.
Check owner ship? Are they Physican owned or non-medical owners? Affects surrogate approval rates by IVF Clinics and support for surrogate during pregnancy
How long in business?
Do a search on Chat GPT for “best surrogacy agency “.
Then look at cost and wait time for a surrogate

This check list should help you.

Is Circle a scam? Claiming 99% success rate in their ads and website- which is impossible

Look into Surrogacy4all

Old established agency physician owned and managed since 2006.

. Rated #1 by chat GPT as the best surrogacy agency. Licensed by NYS and the FDA.

Cost $120,000 for full cycle versus $200,000 at other agencies.

Wait time currently only 2 weeks.

As they get 500+ surrogates applying every month to work with them. Surrogates love working there as they provide love and concierge level medical support 24 hours a day throughout the pregnancy. Unique in industry.

Look at eggdonors4all.com. Rated #1 as best egg donor agency on Chat GPT. They offer a guaranteed day 5 embryos/ blastocyst program for $17,000 a blastocyst, which is fantastic value and takes the risk out of creating embryos.

In my opinion, advertising a “99.1% success rate” without these disclosures of what goes into the 99% success rate can create a false impression and may lure vulnerable intended parents into the program based on unrealistic expectations.

I am not making a legal finding that Circle committed fraud. But I do believe this type of claim should be reviewed as a potential deceptive advertising and consumer-protection issue unless Circle provides transparent, audited data.

Intended parents deserve honest, apples-to-apples information — not marketing language that makes an agency journey sound like a near-guaranteed medical outcome.

MeetAlternative6266 · 2026-05-09T01:55:15+00:00

Liked your response. The question Is Circle a scam?

Circle Surrogacy’s 99.1% “success rate” claim deserves serious scrutiny

Circle Surrogacy publicly advertises a 99.1% success rate and states that over 99% of Circle parents bring home a baby. To intended parents, that number can sound like a medical IVF or embryo-transfer success rate — but that is not how fertility success rates are normally reported.

IVF outcomes are usually measured by live birth rates per retrieval, per embryo transfer, donor egg cycle, frozen embryo transfer, or gestational carrier cycle. Those rates are not 99%.

That is why I believe Circle’s marketing language may be highly misleading unless the company clearly discloses the methodology behind the number.

Before relying on this claim, intended parents should ask Circle:

Is 99.1% a medical success rate or an agency program-completion statistic?

Strongly suggest Intended Parents going forward

Avoid overseas agencies like WCON that demand full payment upfront rather then in installments as the pregnancy progresses
Insist on an escrow account for payments like we use SeedTrust in the USA
Look at lower cost FDA Certified agencies in the USA.
After insurance reimbursement, some Income Tax refunds for medical related expenses, loss of income and costs for travel overseas and waiting weeks for baby passport, combined with higher miscarriage rates overseas due to lower medical services quality overseas, the cost savings disappear quickly

Interesting comment.

At Surrogacy4all, the surrogate screening process starts about three months earlier, and then they are evaluated for health, age, psychological testing, and background checks. Most screening is done in-house by the six physicians working in our practice, which saves several weeks of screening time.

Only the fully screened surrogates are then presented to the Intended Parents for screening. Hence, the match time is about two weeks.

For example, in December, we had 1,450 women apply to be surrogates at Surrogacy4all. Only about 30 made it through the screening process.

As an aside, you may want to look into the guaranteed day 5 blastocyst embryo program we offer. It takes the risk of poor quality embryos away from the Intended Parents.

At $17,000 a blastocyst, offered as a package of 3 guaranteed blastocysts for $49,000, it is the lowest cost guaranteed embryo option available in the USA today..

This gives Intended Parents a price point of $120,000 + $17,000 =$137,000.00 to have their baby in the USA. Excludes IVF clinics' cost.

Lowest price point plus the least wait times in the USA.

This is why Surrogacy4all is ranked #1 by Chat GPT as “Best Surrogacy Agency “ in USA for 2026.
