As an an egg donor I am very pleased to say I NEVER had a bad experience working with the Genesis Group. A matter of fact, I couldn’t of asked for a better support group than the ladies working in their office. I have now donated 6 times and had a wonderful journey each and everytime. Both Lisa and Nikki were always there for me and always made sure I was doing well. If there was any question I had or anything I needed, they were prompt, knowledgeable, and always there to help me out. Both ladies helped me through so much and I will forever be grateful for them and their team. The fulfillment I received through every donation is shared with those special ladies and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Thank you to the Genesis team and a Special thanks to Lisa! Your an amazing woman with a heart of gold!

My journey was definitely unique to say the least, and I felt so much love and support throughout the most stressful of times. We laughed together, cried together, and they always made sure I knew I was appreciated. They made my journey the most beautiful experience, and I feel privileged to be apart of this agency. Everyone who works here is so passionate about their jobs, and that passion touches everyone they encounter. I cannot say enough good things about them.

My husband and I were exceptionally happy with the past and continued surrogacy support we receive from the entire Genesis team, and especially from Erica and La Vonna. Unlike friends' experiences with other agencies, Genesis has been a trusted source of professional support, highly knowledgeable, and with excellent, exceedingly prompt communication. As first time parents, the Genesis team thoroughly and patiently walked us through the entire surrogacy journey in a manner befitting bespoke service and personal warmth and touch. The team is flexible, adaptive, and responsive to intended parent and GC needs. And we are highly discerning individuals with a high bar for excellent service and Genesis even exceed that!
The team quickly and (seemingly) seamlessly matched us with an extraordinary GC who will continue to help us welcome a sibling for our wonderful daughter! We especially appreciated how artfully and seamlessly the Genesis team handled all of the business and financial aspects of our surrogacy journey to allow us to focus on building a personal relationship with our GC and her family, rather than handle those matters directly. We wish everyone the type of service, personal touch, and experience we received.
From the bottom of our hearts, we cannot thank you enough for your truly significant role in helping make our family a reality!

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Genesis Egg Donor & Surrogacy Group for about 10 years and can say without a doubt that they are careful, attentive, organized, professional…. and caring - they truly care about their work and their clients and know their clients are trusting them with one of the most important moments in their lives.”

"If you are looking for an actual support system and not just an agency that helps you with paperwork, monthly payments and check-ins once a month for updates with appointments, this is the place to be. As a surrogate, what I love is the fact that these women actually take the time to form a personal relationship with you... I don't feel dispensable or just a business transaction. I have access to them 24 hours a day 7 days a week because they actually give you their personal contact information to call, email, and even TEXT at anytime! Genesis consists of a small staff, but you can tell they really care about all of their clients in every aspect, whether you are Intended Parent, Egg Donor, or Surrogate. As a surrogate who has worked with a large agency prior, they have definitely set the bar for how an agency should treat their surrogates."

“My husband and I began our journey in October 2017. Gestational surrogacy is certainly not an easy road and we are so grateful for finding Genesis. I honestly don’t know how we would’ve done this without them. They are an amazing group who take pride in their work and have nothing but the sincerest intentions for both intended parents and surrogate mothers. We came to gestational surrogacy due to an autoimmune disorder that I have struggled with for over a decade. After many conversations with my doctors, it was clear that carrying my own biological baby to term would not have been a safe for either of us.
The journey was certainly not easy – it was full of ups and downs and I’ve cried countless times, not knowing if our baby would ever arrive. They did their absolute best to ensure that we were all taken care of, both emotionally and physically. I am so happy to say that we now have a beautiful, healthy, baby girl who came to us surrounded by so much love and with the support of such an incredible team.
We feel so blessed to have finally been granted this chance to become parents, and Genesis will always be a part of our daughter’s story.”

"I've been a surrogate for this agency over 3 years now. I am currently working on my second journey.
I can not say enough how wonderful it has been with Genesis! Every single one of the ladies work their butts off to make your experience the best possible. I have had minor hiccups (outside sources, not agency) throughout the years, ALL of which Genesis and their amazing team were able to help me come up with a positive solution for in a timely manner. I would use them for every journey I take because I know they would have my back regardless of outcome. I trust these ladies more than I can Express.
I not only recommend peeking at their info and stats, but I suggest you give them a call. You can only read so much about something on the internet. these ladies are captivating, trustworthy, honest, loyal, have great personalities (no 2 alike!), are communicative, and loving. they have become a part of my family."

" We work closely with a large variety of agencies but The Genesis Group is definitely at the top of my list. They are well organized and their staff is friendly, extremely helpful and always professional. The Genesis Group is also attentive; not only to their clients, but to the industry professionals working on their cases as well. It truly makes my job easier and more enjoyable when I get to work with an agency that possesses these qualities. ”

“ Since the day I first spoke to La Vonna on the phone, she made me feel like family!. The Genesis Group are the most loving, kindhearted, unselfish, understanding people I’ve met. They help make the unpredictable and sometimes hard situations bearable! I would not be able to do this without their support! I am excited to embark on another journey!!!”

I am a surrogate for this wonderful agency. I am so glad that I can call these wonderful ladies friends also. Anytime I needed them they were there for me. I am so thankful to be able to work so close with them especially Lisa and La Vonna. I don't know any other agency that would care so much for their surrogates and egg donors like they do. They are my shoulder to cry on, my voice when I felt like I didn't have anyone, and my first phone call when there is great news! Anyone will be blessed to work with this wonderful agency just like I have been. I love you ladies

"This agency and the amazing women who represent it are not just doing a "JOB" they sacrifice so much more than just a 9 - 5 and do more than anyone can ever imagine... they are my friends... no they have become my surrosisters/family... I love Genesis and I am so thankful to have them walk beside me during both my surrogate journeys. I am a 2 time surrogate my first journey was was in 2013 and 2nd in 2016. I had quite the first journey. During my first attempt to get pregnant and celebrating pregnancy we lost the baby, shortly after loosing the baby my family was rocked with the loss of my younger brother. These women continued to be my rocks!!! If it wasn't for them I would have never been able to get through any of it.... I got pregnant and went into labor early at only 22.5 weeks pregnant. I spent 52 days in the hospital, and even though I was up in northern CA further away from the office that didn't stop them from continuing to be my rock and support."

“Our experience as Intended Parents with Genesis was so amazing! When we first started looking at agencies, we were a bit overwhelmed but our clinic gave us a short list of the ones they recommended and it just so happened that Genesis was also one that we had previously researched online. We had an initial consult with them (and two other agencies just to do our due diligence) and felt like Genesis was the best fit for us. Everyone we have talked to since signing on with them has been warm, understanding, and on top of things, including explaining each step to us. Our first embryo transfer didn't work and Genesis was so supportive to both us and our surrogate. Luckily our second transfer did work and they were with us every step of the way during the pregnancy to make sure that everything was taken care of in a timely manner. Our surrogate told us the same on her end, including making sure the bills were always paid on time.
The surrogate that we matched with was such a perfect fit for our personalities and will be forever a part of our family!
We have since referred a colleague and a friend to them. One needed a surrogate and their journey is going well and the other one needed a donor and they have had nothing but great things to say about their experiences so far.”

"My office has had the pleasure of working with The Genesis Group for close to 10 years, with hundreds of cases together. This is definitely a top-notch egg donation and surrogacy agency. The entirety of The Genesis Group staff are knowledgeable, ethical, and hard-working, with meticulous attention to details. My dealings with The Genesis Group are consistently excellent, and I would never hesitate to recommend them to my colleagues and clients.”

“My journey as an Intended mother had a rocky start when my initial surrogate was fired by my OB on the day of implantation (because of repeated failure to show up to appointments, inject hormones, etc.) in the depths of despair and sorrow that followed, La Vonna, Erica, and their team rallied behind me to give me hope and raise my spirits to get back on my track of being a mother; something I have dreamed of for years. Erica was incredibly warm, always available, always encouraging even when the lights seemed dim. Her positive energy and can-do attitude was a God-send and finally I started to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I could not believe also how approachable, personable, yet strong La Vonna was - she really went above and beyond to help me recover and restart. The new surrogate they found for me was - and has been - incredible. Sweet, responsive, with an amazing family of her own, she made this journey seem easy and peaceful. Believe it or not, with the help of this wonderful team the entire pregnancy seemed to go by in a flash and without any wrinkles. Now as I hold my newborn son in arm, I am at awe not only at how amazing a new life can be, but also in gratitude to these incredibly wonderful ladies that made it happen. Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.”

“After years of heartache and frustration in trusting other surrogate specialists, I was referred to Genesis. I was very skeptical from previous experience with agencies and consultants who gave me the impression that they knew what they were doing; however, working with Genesis was a blessing. Genesis exceeded my expectations because of their professionalism and attention to detail from start to finish. I feel that the integrity of their name meant something to them. Also, it is important to pay attention to what people do instead of what they say. Genesis did everything to make my family a reality because that was their goal. It is important to note that nothing is guaranteed in this business, but it is possible to work with an agency like Genesis who is professional and follow a formula with a successful record instead of placing your hopes in people who are really inept and don’t have your best interests at heart, despite what they profess. Everyone I worked with at Genesis was incredible.”
