Looking for a Surrogacy Agency in Greensboro, NC? Let Us Help
The first decision you’ll need to make? Whether or not to work with a Greensboro surrogacy agency or program.
A surrogacy program, sometimes also called a surrogacy agency, can be a lifesaver for intended parents and gestational carriers, especially if they are new to this family-building process. Surrogacy can be complicated; embarking on the process without professional guidance can waste time, energy and money for all involved. Don’t let that happen to you — work with a Greensboro surrogacy agency or a full-service program such as Southern Surrogacy from the very start.
But, why work with Southern Surrogacy?
As a local program, we can provide localized, personalized expertise and guidance that you won’t find at a larger national agency. Our staff has worked in surrogacy for decades, and we’ve helped many through their Greensboro surrogacy journeys. We can do the same for you.

Looking for a Greensboro Surrogacy Attorney?
Surrogacy programs can’t provide legal guidance, instead referring their clients to third parties for this service.
We will refer you to an experienced attorney in this area of law. Rest assured that they know local laws and regulations like nobody else, and they will provide expert legal advice throughout your whole Greensboro surrogacy journey.
Your surrogacy attorneys will work tirelessly to complete the legal steps of surrogacy, including;
- Confirming your surrogacy journey meets all North Carolina surrogacy laws and regulations
- Drafting and finalizing a contract between you and your surrogate
- Establishing the intended parents’ parental rights through an appropriate parentage order
- Locating independent counsel for your gestational carrier, to avoid conflict of interest
- And providing legal guidance for your individual circumstances
We will also help all gestational carriers obtain independent legal counsel, to avoid conflict of interest and further protect their rights and interests.
When you work with Southern Surrogacy, you can rest assured that every aspect of your journey will adhere to Columbus surrogacy laws and regulations. The attorneys we refer to take great pride in what they do, and they will be honored to guide through your personal journey.
Looking for a Greensboro Surrogacy Clinic?
In addition to a Greensboro surrogacy agency and attorney, you’ll also need to work with a surrogacy clinic.
A surrogacy clinic completes the important pre-surrogacy medical steps. A gestational surrogacy can’t be created without the assistance of a medical professional but, fortunately, there are many in the region that can help you through this process.
Your surrogacy clinic will usually be responsible for:
- Medically screening a prospective gestational carrier
- Completing psychological evaluations for both parties in the surrogacy arrangement
- Prescribing a prospective surrogate necessary fertility medication
- Completing the embryo transfer process
Most intended parents have a fertility clinic in mind when they start their Greensboro surrogacy process. If you don’t, please reach out to a clinic as soon as possible; they will determine whether gestational surrogacy is a viable infertility option for your situation.
Here are a few local options to consider:
- Atlantic Reproductive Medicine Specialists
- Carolinas Fertility Institute
- Cone Health
- UNC Fertility
- Wake Forest Baptist Health
Please note: This is not an extensive list of Greensboro surrogacy clinics. You can always look at the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s database.
If you are a prospective surrogate in Greensboro, you will work with a fertility clinic of your intended parents’ choosing. If it is not a local clinic, your intended parents will cover any travel costs required as you move forward.
