Do you want to become a surrogate? We are now offering a sign on bonus to all qualified and matched surrogates that sign contracts. The first step is to fill out our surrogate application. A fertility specialist will contact you to continue the process. For intended parents interested in surrogacy to start or grow their families please contact us today. The surrogacy process is complex, but we will be with you every step of the way. Call today to get started.

Women who may have the ability to produce eggs but are unable to use their uterus or do not have a uterus, may consider a surrogate. A donated egg may also be used with the surrogate in the event a woman cannot produce her own eggs or her uterus is not intact or insufficient to carry a pregnancy. In either case, the husband's sperm, if viable, may be used.

Using an egg donor unrelated to the surrogate carrier eliminates any biological tie. The egg of the surrogate is never used as part of the assisted reproduction process, so that a surrogate is never in the position of delivering her own biological child.

The basic requirements of a woman to serve as a surrogate are:

• Emotionally stable
• Responsible
• In good physical health
• Non-smoker
• Has had at least one successful pregnancy
• Is capable of carrying a child to full term

A woman is not required to fall within a particular age range to serve as a surrogate, but most intended parents prefer a surrogate under the age of 40. For more information on surrogacy please see the documents on the left side of this page.

In Texas, there is a judicial process for validating the Gestational Contract (the contract between the intended parents and the surrogate). Included within the various requirements for having a Gestational Contract validated by a Texas court is that the intended parents must be married and the surrogate must have previously carried a child to term. Additionally, there are residency requirements that apply to either the surrogate or the intended parents, but not both.

Compensation for a surrogate services generally starts in the range of $35,000 - $40,000, for base compensation with over all fees up to 70k, in many cases. The amount of compensation is dependent upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, whether the surrogate carries twins, what procedures a surrogate is required to undergo and whether the delivery is vaginally or by cesarean section.

• Lead a team of production technicians in their daily tasks of assembling, labeling, and packaging may take place in a cleanroom environment.  Must adhere to proper gowning procedures 
• Label and assemble finished product components and kits for inventory and shipping
• Work alongside of the Manufacturing Supervisor to help forecast and plan continuing manufacturing efforts to ensure an on time delivery. 
• Label and assemble study kits in support of clinical research services
• Pull kits from inventory stock and quality check to prepare for shipping
• Remove finished products from the machine and separate rejected items
• Stock, sort, and secure products for packaging
• Inspect intermediate and finished products to ensure they meet quality standards and specifications.  Remove defective products and packaging material
• Clean packaging containers, workstations, and floors daily and as needed with the use of chemicals such as bleach
• Maintain accurate records of assembly activities, including documenting any deviations from standard procedures or any issues encountered during the process
• Follow all relevant regulations, standards, and protocols related to manufacturing and assembly of products and kits, such as GMP or ISO standards
• Adhere to safety protocols and procedures to ensure a safe working environment
• Maintain a clean area

• 3-4 years of manufacturing experience,
• Background in or exposure to working in a GMP/ GDP environment,
• Strong organizational and people skills
• Experience with Zeta or BioDot equipment 
• Past team leadership experience is a plus but not required for the right individual.
