It's not because I already have my son with me, it's because since I started inquiring at several agencies, Gestacy was the one I trusted the most. Before starting, I was able to video call and clarify a thousand doubts, and throughout the process, thanks to my coordinator, Larysa, we were able to resolve every detail. How important it is that my goal was also hers. And thanks to that sensitivity and willingness, we reached a successful conclusion. There were highs and lows, but she was always available to clarify every situation by phone, video call, or email. Thank you also for being responsible with the surrogates. In my case, an angel to whom I will be forever grateful. And as we wrap up the process, to the legal teams who, aware of the delays in the paperwork, are working around the clock so we can return home as soon as possible :)
I would highlight the human and continued attention that I have had in my daughter's process. Thanks to the help of Karen, Ingrid, Cecile and Santiago, the path of uncertainty (and sometimes unforeseen events) has been much more bearable. I have received extra help even in aspects that I did not necessarily have to take on. Thanks to them, today I have a splendid relationship with the surrogate and I have been able to focus on the care and upbringing of my daughter. It is not an easy path, but the quality emotional and technical support received has been key in my case.
Everyone is very friendly and they answer all your questions, they explain everything when you need it, the treatment is very humane, I recommend it for girls who are interested in becoming pregnant
