"I just wanted to send our most sincere thank you! You were so instrumental in helping us grow our family and we are forever grateful for you. Yesterday afternoon we welcomed our beautiful son into the world via our rockstar gestational carrier."  ​

"We were surprised how quickly we were able to find an egg donor and then also a surrogate that aligned with all of our key criteria. Cheryl and Brandy did an amazing job listening to our feedback and honing in on the right candidates. Would definitely recommend this service to other intended parents in the future."
​~ A and L, San Francisco ​

"We are so grateful to have found Stephanie and her matchmaking services! After a long process and multiple negative experiences dealing with agencies on our own, Stephanie's approach was a much needed breath of fresh air. She understands the industry very well and took the time to understand our wish list. We ended up with an amazing agency and fantastic surrogate. Would absolutely recommend Stephanie's services to anyone."

"I would like to stress how incredibly helpful  your team has been through this whole process. Not only did our case manager supply us with great viable options to consider, but she was also very easy to work with and talk to, offered great introduction to how the whole process works, and most importantly, it was apparent that you truly cared to see us succeed and meet our happy ending. Nothing but positive feelings for your company and staff!"

"We found the service incredibly good. Your team did an exceptional job in locating a lot of great egg donor matches. We fell in love pretty early in the process (I think like the second profile sent) and - fingers crossed - we won’t need to go back to all the other great matches found but, if we do, we are very well prepared because of the service you provided. We will recommend you far and wide!"
~A and M, Recipient Parents, Los Angeles

"Stephanie has been an incredible advocate and guide for us during this challenging and emotional journey.  When we decided to pursue surrogacy, our IVF clinic recommended Stephanie’s services to help us find a surrogate. We were eager to speak with her and from our very first conversation Stephanie exceeded our expectations.  Stephanie presented us with numerous candidates that were suited towards our specific needs. She then helped us evaluate candidates by providing advice and insight based on the abundance of experience she has working in the field. 

Throughout the process, Stephanie has been an invaluable resource and has provided concrete answers and feedback to address all of our questions and concerns. Additionally, Stephanie sets herself apart through her fantastic customer service. She is prompt and responsive, while always being empathetic and understanding of our unique situation. We deeply appreciated that she tailored her services to our circumstances and needs and did not give up on the process until we found the right fit. 

Stephanie made the whole process much smoother and we feel so fortunate to have her in our corner. We are now matched with a wonderful surrogate and thrilled to be moving forward in this process and comforted by having Stephanie’s ongoing support."
~M and B, Intended Parents, CA

"You were like our own personal Google search for egg donors!  We had searched and searched on our own for months without any luck and like magic, you were able to find a ton of amazing egg donors we hadn't stumbled upon on our own.  We are so happy with the donor you found for us and actually would have been very happy with many of the donors on your list  We just want to thank you for your support and for making what we thought would be a very difficult and very long process, much easier and much shorter."
~F and B, Recipient Parents, Texas

"Words cannot express how amazing Stephanie Levich is but I'll try. My husband and I had been looking for a surrogate for six months with no success. We tried everything. We had retained a very large surrogacy agency, we retained another concierge service, and we had been doing our own searching. We were so discouraged. Then my doctor's office recommended Stephanie. From the moment we retained her she began diligently searching for a surrogate for us. Within less than 48 hours of us retaining her, Stephanie had found us the most amazing surrogate! Stephanie is incredible and I highly HIGHLY recommend her. She is extremely dedicated to her clients. She was always accessible and quickly responded to any questions we had. She is so knowledgeable in this field and effectively conveys her knowledge. She is also very compassionate and caring, which is so important when dealing with such a sensitive and important issue. My husband and I are so so grateful to Stephanie."
~L and T, Intended Parents, Los Angeles

"As a same-sex couple beginning the journey to starting a family, we quickly realized how confusing and overwhelming the egg donor search can be. Thankfully Stephanie stepped in and saved the day. She really took the time to listen to our story and ask all the right questions about what we were looking for in a donor. Within just a couple of days, she had compiled a list of wonderful possibilities who we would've never found on our own. And just like that, a process we feared could take months was over in a week! Thank you, Stephanie!"
~D and M, Intended Parents, New York

"Stephanie has been so kind and helpful throughout this process. We were unsure where to begin in choosing an egg donor, it was certainly a daunting and out of the ordinary set of decisions to make. Stephanie put us at ease, gave advice and helped us prioritize what was important in our search criteria. Stephanie was extremely proactive and responsive; always available to discuss options with us. We would highly recommend her services and would like to thank her for making the process more manageable."
~A and P, Recipients, New Jersey

"Thank you a ton for your support with what is an emotionally challenging and life-altering situation. I really valued your input and help with our search. We're very excited to work with the donor you found for us. She has given us new optimism. We're happy to pass on your name to others!"
~L and M, Recipients, Canada

"We had very specific criteria in mind, therefore we sought a service that had wide access to many egg donor programs. Family Match Consulting was confident they could find what we were looking for and they delivered. They found a match for us within a couple of days.   They were a pleasure to work with and their fee was worth every penny. We are now pregnant with twins! Thank you Stephanie!"
~K and J, Recipients, Florida

"Working in a research field, I was confident that with hard work, I could find a surrogate on my own. I spent months and countless hours emailing and calling agencies throughout the country. I even got close to matching with a surrogate a few times, only to be “scooped” by another couple. As soon as I hired Stephanie Levich with Family Match Consulting, my luck began to change. This really is a business about relationships, and Stephanie has them. I had incredibly difficult match criteria (many of the agencies I called told me a surrogate with my criteria would be impossible to find) but Stephanie made it happen. She is incredibly professional and told me upfront what to expect – no false promises. Stephanie knows this business back to front and was the best investment we made in this process."
~J and M, Intended Parents, Los Angeles

"Thanks again for all your help getting us connected with a great donor! Prior to calling you it was daunting to think about the seemingly infinite number of donor options and try to imagine narrowing it down to just one. You showed us options that were really fantastic and we're so grateful for the part you played in helping us find a donor."
~S and S, Recipients, New York

 "I really enjoyed working with you. Your speedy response and professional way of handling requests really made a huge difference in this difficult time of ours. Thank you!"
~Jason,  Recipient, China

"Hi Stephanie, I wanted to let you know how everything is going with the match. All the legal work has been completed and we are moving forward with IVF within the next month. Our surrogate you matched us with has been very nice and cooperative and the agency has been very helpful, patient and most importantly quick to respond. I want to thank you for your help in finding us our match and fingers crossed everything goes well the next 9+ months. :)) I may be reaching out to you again for match #2 in the near future (for baby #2). You helped put our minds at ease the moment we met you. We can't thank you enough for your help, positive words and energy."
~Monique, Intended Parent, Los Angeles

"We could not be more thankful for our experience with Stephanie as our “Family Match” consultant. Her knowledge, time and devotion, to help us find our perfect donor, were invaluable. She made an otherwise overwhelming, emotional decision much easier as she guided us through the process. We didn’t believe we would find a donor as quickly as her services claimed, we thought our personalities would require much more time. However, within a couple of days we had profiles of several very lovely donors that had qualities that reflected exactly what we were looking for. To our surprise in less than ten days, with a spreadsheet, personal info, photos and the insight that Stephanie provided, we felt confident in our donor choice. It would be incredibly time consuming to acquire the access to agencies and their data base that she was able to provide for us through Family Match Consulting services. After making our selection, Stephanie introduced us to the agency that represented our donor and provided further assistance in understanding how we would move forward with some of the clinical and legal aspects.  Stephanie was always available for questions and concerns; she definitely adds the personal touch. We would not hesitate to refer her services as a professional and passionate consultant through a very exciting process."
~JJ, Recipient, Ohio

"I still cannot believe how quickly you were able to match us with our surrogate.  After meeting with several agencies who did not have available surrogates that were what we hoped to find and being told we would have to wait anywhere from 3-12 months, our doctor told us about Family Match Consulting.  Due to different factors we needed to find a surrogate as quickly as possible.  Within a week of contacting you we were meeting with our potential surrogate and within 2 weeks we were matched and beginning the process.  Thank you for getting us on track so quickly and for all your warmth and prompt attention during this stressful time.  We feel so lucky to have been put in touch with you."
~Annie - Intended Parent, Los Angeles

"I really really appreciate all of your help. I feel so clueless with this process and don't know the right questions to ask, but I am so thankful we were connected with you and that you've have been such a tremendous help to us at the beginning of this process. Thank you! Thank you for being proactive in helping us secure our egg donor and for taking it a step further to contact my doctor to verify her medical history. Yesterday, a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. I'm just feeling more confident moving forward, and you are a huge part of that."
~Lisa - Recipient, Los Angeles

"Stephanie is an amazing, knowledgeable, respectful, patient, and integral part of our team in searching for a surrogate. I could not imagine going through this process without her right by our side! She has been with us since the very early stages, from meeting with us and helping navigate this unknown and new path, to later reviewing surrogate profiles and helping us select the best candidate. She has so much experience and insight into the fertility world, and knows which agencies are top-notch and well-respected in the community. She was available to us as much as we wanted and needed, and we never felt that we were asking too many questions. She is truly incredible and will make your journey so personalized and comfortable."
~Karen - Intended Parent, Los Angeles

"Thank you so much for all your assistance in finding our donor!  After our second donor fell through before finding you, we were so discouraged, especially after waiting so long for her to start and finish a cycle.  We are really excited about our egg donor, and you made the process so quick and painless.  We appreciate all your efforts and will definitely pass along your name to our friends who will be entering the donor egg process in the future."
~Tracy - Recipient, Connecticut

"We didn't realize how daunting and discouraging the search for an egg donor could be.  Egg donors we loved had long waiting lists.  We would find an egg donor that we were excited to choose but the agency told us she wouldn't donate for a gay couple.  Trying to find an egg donor became a full time job. We had already matched with our surrogate who was patiently waiting but we worried that if we didn't find someone quickly we could loose our surrogate and be back at square one.  We didn't want that fear to push us towards choosing an egg donor that we weren't confident with.  Our doctor recommended we contact you and we are so glad he did.  You really understood what we were hoping to find and the profiles you sent were a reflection of that.  It's only been a week and we are already finalizing our match with our egg donor!  Yipeee!  Thank you for everything."
Mike, Intended Parent, Los Angeles

"Getting married later in life but still wanting to have a family, I suspected that I may end up needing some assistance with fertility.  After only a few months of trying I sought help and started on the journey of fertility testing and treatments.  All of it was new and kind of exciting.  It never crossed my mind that it wouldn’t work.
After 5 treatment cycles along with embryo testing, it became clear to us that the chances of becoming pregnant at all, much less carrying a healthy baby to term, was going to be nearly impossible.  The numbers were not in our favor.  While there was still a single digit chance though, we had a difficult choice to make; continue doing IVF cycles with my own eggs, most likely unsuccessfully, or look for other options.  It was a hard to decision to make, but once I started reaching out and talking to people the answer became very clear; I needed an egg donor.

After research and many phone calls I was fortunate enough to make a connection with an amazing woman, Stephanie Levich.  We spoke at length on multiple occasions about finding a woman who could be an egg donor for us.  We discussed the process and the possibilities.  We spent time talking about what my husband and I needed in an egg donor.  Explaining what things were important and what things didn’t matter as much. Stephanie is as smart as she is compassionate and as professional as she is kind and I knew we found the right person to help us through this next part of our journey. With certain variables in mind, we chose an egg donor.  We started the process but things didn’t work out with our donor.  She had never been a donor before and was medically unable to be a donor for anyone.  This was extremely upsetting, but Stephanie was right there for us.  We regrouped, refocused and found a new donor.  Things went smoothly with our donor this time.  But to be clear, it is very emotional.  Every blood test, every exam, every contract signing is hard. The only way to get through it is to have a great team with you.  For me that was my husband, my doctor and Stephanie. 

I don’t feel that it is an exaggeration to say that Stephanie single handedly changed the trajectory of our lives.  Yes, our doctor was extremely instrumental and I credit him with making me a mother.  But without Stephanie, I would not have the amazing child that is my daughter. We will forever be grateful to have found and worked with Stephanie and she will always hold a special place in our family."
