We know this journey

GSHC（Gestational Surrogacy HealthCare) is an internationally recognized, full-service boutique agency devoted to creating families. Our passion for surrogacy and love for children guide us in everything we do. We provide the highest level of service for our Intended Parents and Surrogates alike and, unlike most agencies, 93% of our Case Managers are Surrogates and Donors themselves.

Our values

GSHC is committed to providing exceptional care and support to intended parents, gestational surrogates, egg donors and sperm donors throughout the entire surrogacy journey. We believe in building strong relationships founded on clear communication, compassion, and respect. Our mission is to help individuals and families achieve their dreams of parenthood through surrogacy, while ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of all involved.

Our commitment

At GSHC, we are committed to delivering the highest standard of care, transparency, and support to intended parents, gestational surrogates, egg donors, and sperm donors throughout their entire family-building journey. Our core values guide every decision we make and reflect the heart of who we are as an agency:

We put people before profit.
The dream of building a family is more meaningful than financial gain. We uphold strict ethical standards and ensure fair, respectful compensation and treatment for surrogates and donors, always prioritizing their well-being and safety.

We partner only with trusted, experienced professionals.
From leading fertility specialists and embryologists to legal experts, psychologists, social workers, and insurance specialists, we work with a network of professionals who share our commitment to excellence, integrity, and compassionate care. Every stage of the journey is handled with precision and expertise.

We believe transparency is essential.
Open, clear, and timely communication is at the center of every successful journey. We make sure intended parents, surrogates, egg donors, and sperm donors receive accurate information, continuous updates, and genuine guidance from intake to delivery — and beyond.

We strive to make every journey safe, empowered, and deeply supported.
Our goal is not only to help intended parents welcome a healthy baby, but also to ensure that surrogates and donors feel valued, respected, and empowered throughout the experience. Their contribution is life-changing, and we honor it with care and gratitude.

We are dedicated to creating families — with compassion, integrity, and unwavering commitment.
Every story matters. Every journey matters. Every heartbeat matters.
GSHC is here to walk beside you with professionalism, empathy, and world-class expertise.
