Wichita Surrogacy Attorneys
Whether or not you choose to work with a surrogacy agency, you will always need to work with an experienced Wichita surrogacy attorney.

If you’re not sure what to look for in a surrogacy attorney, our specialists can help.

Wichita Surrogacy Clinics
Not just any medical professional can complete the medical process of surrogacy. It’s important that all parties considering surrogacy in Wichita work with a certified, experienced surrogacy clinic (also known as a fertility clinic) to complete the embryo transfer process.
Before anyone can become a surrogate in Wichita, KS, they will need to complete a medical evaluation. This medical screening will determine if a woman is a suitable candidate for surrogacy. Once she is approved, she will work with the fertility clinic of her intended parents’ choosing to prepare for the embryo transfer and eventually undergo this medical procedure.
Wichita surrogate mothers who match with intended parents using a non-local surrogacy clinic will have their travel costs covered for screening and procedures. Wichita intended parents don’t necessarily have to work with a surrogacy clinic in Wichita; if you have an existing relationship with a fertility clinic located somewhere else, you can certainly use that medical professional for your surrogacy journey.
But, if you don’t yet have a surrogacy clinic in mind, here are a few Kansas professionals to think about:
- Blue Sky Fertility
- The Center for Reproductive Medicine – Wichita
- Midwest Reproductive Center, PA
- Reproductive Resource Center
- The University of Kansas Advanced Reproductive Medicine
Wichita Professionals for Prenatal and Maternal Care and Delivery
While a surrogate in Wichita, KS, will need to travel to her intended parents’ chosen fertility clinic for medical procedures, she will be able to receive local care during her pregnancy and for her delivery.
Many times, gestational carriers have a certain obstetrician in mind when they start their surrogacy process and, for their comfort, they have the right to choose the medical professional they want for the next nine months. A gestational carrier’s medical costs will always be covered by the intended parents, no matter which doctor she chooses.
If you don’t have an obstetrician in mind for your surrogate pregnancy, there are a few local medical professionals to choose from:
- Associates in Women’s Health
- Center for Women’s Health
- Maternal-Fetal Associates of Kansas
- Wichita OB/GYN Associates
Something else to consider when thinking about becoming a surrogate mother in Wichita: In addition to your covered surrogacy costs, you will also be eligible to receive a surrogate base compensation, should you desire it.
The professionals listed in this article are just a few of the Wichita surrogacy professionals available to you on this journey. Finding the right professional can be hard, so let American Surrogacy make it a bit easier for you.
