Horrible communication, lack of coordination. Glad we moved on elsewhere !
always hearing great things!
I had an exceptional experience with Alcea Surrogacy. From the outset, their team exhibited exceptional professionalism, compassion, and attentiveness. During the initial consultation, Angela, the CEO, demonstrated remarkable professionalism. She dedicated the time to address my inquiries, provided a comprehensive explanation of the process, and instilled a sense of comfort. Her warmth, expertise, and unwavering dedication to assisting others were truly inspiring. The matching process was seamless, and I received continuous support throughout the journey. The team’s unwavering commitment to both intended parents and surrogates was evident, and their genuine concern for all involved was palpable. Every aspect of the process, encompassing legal, medical, and emotional considerations, was handled with the utmost care and professionalism. Angela and her team consistently exceeded expectations, ensuring a smooth and seamless experience. I highly recommend Alcea Surrogacy to anyone contemplating surrogacy, whether as a surrogate or an intended parent.
Between the personal experience of closed adoption and the years of the infertility roller coaster that followed, a calling to third party reproduction seemed inevitable for Alcea Co-Founder and Executive Director Angela Richardson-Mook. With a successful corporate project management background, fifteen+ years of third-party reproduction expertise, and professional connections to alternative family building nationwide, she has brought her dream of a female-owned, full-service, holistic surrogacy agency to life. As an adopted woman, a gestational carrier, an egg donor, and a mother via IVF, she has a unique outlook on the mechanics of what truly composes a family. By leveraging her knowledge as a corporate executive and as an active member of the surrogacy community, she built unique bonds with a community of people all experiencing different nuances of infertility, yet with all the same dissatisfaction with the status quo. Personal relationships with intended mothers and fathers, surrogates, donors, and agency employees, evolved into the collective creation of a decidedly different surrogacy agency strategy.
As a queer mother of three, who has helped to grow two separate families as a surrogate, Christy understands the complex and unique needs of third-party reproduction. She brings more than 15 years of personal experience in the community, including the expansion of her own family via reciprocal IVF, carrying her Partner’s biological embryo. The desire to serve others is what ultimately called her to surrogacy. and this is when she first met Angela in 2005. After years of working in financial operations management and executive corporate travel, she was delighted to embark on advocacy work that would best utilize her collective career accomplishments and personal experiences. Surrogacy and third-party reproduction have shaped her life’s work and is where her heart truly resides. In addition to professional practices, staying active and healthy are important parts of her daily life. Besides a small obsession with podcasts and anything true-crime; some of Christy's passions include exploring outdoors with family, hiking, kayaking, and practicing yoga.
