The Egg Donor Program

Not a good experience… we purchased 10 thawed eggs and Shelley was suppose to give us an additional egg. Totaling 11 eggs. SHE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH EGGS!!! We only received 9 eggs. You do not get what you pay for at the Egg Donor Program.

My experience with this egg donor agency was very positive. Not only did they contact me every week to make sure I was ok, but they always kept me in the loop about the matching process, the medications, and my appointments. At some point, I just spoke directly to the fertility center regarding my appointments as it was faster, but this agency was easy to communicate with and always answered my questions quickly and completely. Please keep in mind that if you do decide to do this, it works in your favor if you are committed to it and follow through with it to the end. Otherwise, you may have a different experience than what I had.
My cycle coordinator was Christi Frantom. She e-​mailed me every Friday just to see how things were going if my status changed. The medical release forms and legal paper work were all completed online, and my agreements had no issues. After the matching and initial appointments were set, most of my communication was directly with Seattle IVF. My retrieval took longer to get to than initially planned due to my body’s reaction to the medications so I had to postpone moving for one week, but for the most part, there was no complications or problems with OHSS. I did not run into any billing issues, but again, I am speaking from the perspective of an egg donor.
My compensation and reimbursements took about a week to get to me after my retrieval, but it was smooth and incident-​free. I would work with this agency again, given the chance, and I recommend it other potential egg donors as well.
