Extraordinary Conceptions truly lived up to their name! From start to finish, the team was incredibly understanding, polite, and supportive throughout the entire journey. They guided us through every step with professionalism and care, making what could have been a stressful process feel seamless and manageable.The outcome? A beautiful, healthy baby who is thriving and fills our lives with so much joy. We can’t thank them enough for making this dream come true. It was totally worth it, and we would recommend Extraordinary Conceptions to anyone considering surrogacy. An amazing experience, through and through!
Our journey to parenthood was made possible by the wonderful people at extraordinary conceptions. If you’re seeking to grow your family these highly trained people can help. I strongly recommend this family planning service.
Do yourself a favor and AVOID EC at all costs.Our experience with this surrogacy agency has been devastating. Our baby was born with ABO blood incompatibility with the surrogate, a condition that caused her red blood cells to be destroyed. She required a full blood transfusion and remains in the ICU, fighting for her life. Even while we are sleepless and doing everything we can to help our baby survive, the agency continues to pester us with additional bills that seem completely illegitimate.We entrusted EC with over $35,000 in agency fees, expecting them to prioritize the well-being of intended parents (IPs). Instead, we found ourselves battling the very agency that should have supported us during one of the most vulnerable times of our lives.From the start, EC demonstrated incompetence and a complete lack of care. They force you to pay additional fees to outside agencies for basic tasks, such as arranging medical appointments—tasks they should handle. They pushed us toward the most expensive insurance options, which ultimately offered minimal coverage. After collecting their agency fees, EC provided almost no meaningful assistance—except to constantly contact us for more payments.The lack of coordination within EC is staggering. We dealt with at least five different coordinators, each asking for additional payments, sometimes for fees we had already paid. It was clear their internal communication was nonexistent. They also failed to issue proper receipts, making it nearly impossible to track what was paid and what was outstanding.Their communication was abysmal. As new parents, already overwhelmed and exhausted, we had to chase them for basic details. Even within a week of our baby’s due date, EC did not provide us with critical information about the hospital where the baby would be delivered. With the hospital located five hours away, we were left scrambling at the last minute to prepare, adding unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation.On top of the emotional toll, I had to dedicate countless hours to ensuring EC wasn’t exploiting us financially, leaving me with little energy or resources to focus on our baby’s needs.We want to save other families from the heartache and headaches we are going through. Save yourself the stress, financial burden, and emotional devastation. There are far better agencies out there—ones that genuinely care about intended parents and their families.Feel free to contact us for more details about our experience.
We would like to share our experience with extraordinary conceptions (EC). We found a good surrogate through them and paid a very high agency fee (USD 30 000). Until this point all was going well. We were happy with our choice.Unfortunately we had a miscarriage at the 14th week and then a series of failed attempts which led to our doctor asking that we look for another surrogate. We had signed up with EC for a “safe” programme so they were supposed to find us an alternate surrogate.This is where you start seeing the good and the bad agencies. EC started bringing up all sorts of excuses and problems: we were not on a hybrid programme, we could not access the normal database of surrogates available but only the database of “discarded” surrogates from the US programme (our clinic is in Canada), all the surrogates they were proposing had some sort of problem, or infection, or “disappeared” medical records (by the way, they do not screen surrogates before inserting them on the database, despite claiming they do it).They kept saying they were doing their best and yet nothing was moving. We clearly had the impression they were trying to get rid of us as they had no interest in providing a good replacement as the fee had already been paid. We complained to no avail.We were only losing time and finally closed our contract with them without a replacement and moved to a new agency, new fee, etc.So this is to warn anyone who wants to engage with EC. This is not a good agency, it has no interest in your wellbeing or that of the surrogates. All it cares about is profit. Look for another agency.
Carried and delivered Jan 2017... Every adventure has its speed bumps but ours was remarkable to say the least & most of what transpired or what challenged us was out of their control. The staff was better than amazing & their attention to me and my scenario and the IPs was incomparable. Ill be back you guys, just a few more months of me time first.....
Such a great agency to work with! Everybody from the staff are very caring, supportive and compassionate people, they always make sure to help out every Intended Parent, surrogate and egg donor the best way they can. Every case is treated carefully and with respect. Its a joy to be a part of this amazing team!
Everyone at Extraordinary Conceptions has been so helpful (from start to finish) and always available for any questions. My coordinator’s have been such great support. This was my first surrogacy journey and let me tell you it’s been awesome!! It’s such a great feeling to be able to help another family. I plan to do this a second time. I have no complaints I would highly recommend this company to help you!!Thanks again Exraordinary Conceptions for everything !😊
I cannot say enough positive things about Extraordinary Conceptions! As a repeat egg donor, I have always felt that EC has my best interest in mind rather than treating me like a transaction. Ive worked with Tracy every time and she has walked me through every step with patience and care. She is always available any time I have questions and she returns calls/emails promptly. She has become such a mama bear to me, I love her!!Extraordinary Conceptions is a wonderful agency that is passionate about what they do and I would never work with any other agency. They should be your go-to as well!!
As a brand new egg donor, I was excited to assist a couple in starting a family; although I did have some reservations being that the donation process was unfamiliar territory to me. Tracy, Candace, Paula and the rest of the EC team were so helpful and reliable in guiding me throughout the entire process. They made a special effort to make sure I was fully aware of and comfortable with each step of the way. Every question or concern I had was quickly met with kind and professional assistance. Extraordinary Conceptions exudes their passion to helping those looking to expand their family. I am so honored to have connected with such an amazing company that is completely dedicated to this beautiful experience. I highly recommend anyone interested in egg donation, whether on the giving or receiving end, to look into Extraordinary Conceptions and the exceptional care and results they provide.
I couldnt be happier with the Extraordinary Conceptions team and services. It has been delightful to work with you.You have made sure to ease my mind whenever I have doubts. Moreover, you have been so supportive during each step of my journey, making everything as easy as it can possibly be.I am very grateful for all that youve done for me and, from what Ive heard, many others.
I have had a great experience with EC. They have helped me through my first surrogate baby journey. The baby was born in January 2019. I was planning to have atleast one more surro baby with them! But due to my family circumstances that they didn’t like, I went with another agency.
I would definitely recommend Extraordinary Conceptions; My first donation was completed in Canada, the team was great specially Larissa Rodrigues (Coordinator US); She was absolutely professional, patient, understanding, knowledgeable and cares about eggs donors.The whole process was fast and easy.Donating my eggs was one of the most empowering experiences I have ever done!In my second donation, I had a great experience with Petra Dach and Hilary Smith, they are incredible people who gave me all the support throughout my process.I highly recommend this clinic for egg donors.Thank you for helping me!
So far my journey with extraordinary conception has been awesome! They’re always available to help and answer any questions you have. They are very friendly making the experience even better, I would highly recommend working with them. Iris has been awesome and a pleasure to work with, she is always responsive and very helpful.
I love this agency! I just completed my 2nd journey with them. I will definitely come back if/when I decide to do my 3rd journey.I’ve never had any problems with my expenses or bills being paid on time.Jennifer G. has always been there for me if/when I’ve needed her.I highly recommend this agency if you decide to help a family in need.
I have done two surrogacy journeys with them and enjoyed them both! Everyone I have ever talked to has been so kind and caring. My second journey ended up with an emergency c-section and my coordinators Lan and Connie were so helpful to myself AND my family! Hopefully I can do more, but if not it was still worth it big time!
My wife was a surrogate, and it was an incredible experience for both of us. The bond that we developed with the intended parents was the same that you would develop with close personal friends or even with your own family. The support that she received during and even after her journey from Extraordinary Conceptions made her feel valuable, and like a person instead of just a number.
Currently working with EC for my first journey as a surrogate. The staff and coordinates have been amazing to work with, typically responding with an hour or two of my initial outreach. I would recommend EC to any woman considering being a gestational carrier.
I have been with EC for 15 years now. As an egg donor and a now 5X surrogate. The staff and level of service you will get is flawless. They cover a plethora of services that many other agencies are just not staffed to handle. I have been treated like family from day 1. You wont have a more professional or happy experience anywhere else.
As a company that prides itself on providing the very best experience for all of its expecting parents, PacifiCord can’t speak highly enough of Extraordinary Conceptions and their amazing staff.Through both his personal and professional experiences, Mario has created an amazing atmosphere for future parents to learn more about building families and providing all the resources to do so. With Extraordinary Conceptions, feel assured that you are being provided with the top resources in every aspect of the fertility industry.
Horrible experience. Baby in the ICU and struggling. Will add more details later.
I called several surrogacy agencies, and Extradorinary Conceptions was the ONLY one who was willing to work with my specific desires and wishes. Not only that, but they were very understanding and supportive, and have continued to be since Day 1. Special shout out to Jennifer Garcia for her amazing support and encouragement every step of the way!
Extraordinary experience with extraordinary conceptions, my first time being a gestational surrogate and I only wish I would have done it sooner. Feeling so blessed with amazing support and matched with perfect IP’s that will make this little one have amazing parents and I will be blessed having the lifetime gift of bringing him earth side❤️
My husband and I have been looking for fertility clinic and came across this one. Seeing all the NEGATIVE reviews i questioned whether we should use it. I called the agency and discussed some of the concerns noted in the negative reviews about their coached screening process and the like and the person on the phone although she appeared to be friendly agreed that he screen process needed some work. she confided in me and i appreciate her honesty but it goes to show me that he agency generally acts DISHONESTLY.We will be going to another fertility agency.
Extraordinary Conceptions is amazing company to make families come together. They care and are with both sides of family making from start to finish.
I have been working with EC for over a year to become a gestational surrogate. During this time Christa and Ying have been immensely helpful and prompt with responding to any of my emails. Im so glad to have them on my team through this whole process.
Extremely professional and trustworthy Surrogacy Agency, their case managers are always quick to respond to any needs and are very supportive throughout your Surrogacy Journey. Highly recommended!!
I have been a surrogate 3 times and extrodinary conceptions has been a great agency to work with. They make the process easy and they are very helpful and always there when you need them.
To be honest this company treated me so horribly that even 10 years later its made me so ill to think about that’s it prompted me to leave a review this many years later. I was young and a donor and they took advantage of the fact that I needed money. Iv read other reviews and it appears the company is just going to say I wasn’t a customer and some sort of con artist but I have emails and documents for proof. This company preys off of peoples want for a child or money and they take advantage of you. it’s your body don’t let them use you.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS AGENCY. Tracy Devany lies about her screening process.. it is sub par.. she tells people what they want to hear and takes advantage of innocent couples .. She is in a fee arrangement with not only the egg donor but also the doctor. She will tell you that the egg donor only wants to deal with a specific doctor because that doctor will give a referral fee back to her.. She doesnt even tell you about all the tests you can have done on a donor so that no issues could come up that would have you cancel the egg donor. She is being sued right now for all these things!!! STAY AWAY there are much better and honest agencies out there...
I do NOT recommend this agency. They tried to over charge me for services that i received elsewhere for 50% the cost. I gave them my credit card information and they were making unauthorized charges to it.. They seem only to be interested in your money and the service is terrible. I also caught them lying to me about a donors medical background...
Extraordinary Conceptions are so wonderful to work with! Their coordinators and staff are kind, caring and amazing. I highly recommend them!
I love how they tend to every need you have an answer every question you have from beginning to where Im at at this moment Ive gotten every single answer on time with a warm greeting I cant wait to start and finish my journey with this company I definitely recommend them if youre looking to become a surrogate.
A wonderful agency. Always very responsive and kind. Im thrilled to have worked with them on my two surrogacy journeys.
So far the surrogacy journey has been awesome. Fast responses from the coordinators. And having a great support system .
I have loved every step of applying for my journey. All of the employees I have spoken with are amazing with communicating with me and provided outstanding service.
Ive had a very easy, well supported journey and look forward to continuing my story with EC.
Everyone at Extraordinary Conceptions is knowledgeable and helpful every time Ive interacted with someone from their office.
Great company to work with! They make everything very easy for a smooth sailing journey.
I am very thankful for the opportunity that EC gave me to be a surrogate!
Their team is always responsive and helpful and extremely friendly.
Their commercial uses actors for their testimonial. Isnt that a little suspect?
An extraordinary job with extraorinary conceptions, as a pregnant mother I can say that I felt super supported by the entire team, cared for in the best hospitals and with the best doctors, super pampered by the entire team and the ipys changed my life.
There is no better agency than Extraodinary Conceptios, the best team they have, especially Hilda Herrera who accompanied me throughout the process from start to finish, what a beautiful job they do of giving happiness and hope!!!
