Surrogate Support

Introduction: A Whole-Person Approach to Surrogacy

At Patients Medical in New York City, we understand that surrogacy is not just a physical process—it’s an emotional and spiritual journey. Our integrative care program supports surrogates before, during, and after pregnancy with a unique blend of conventional medicine, holistic therapies, and emotional well-being services.

Whether you’re preparing for embryo transfer or recovering post-birth, our goal is to ensure that every surrogate feels respected, cared for, and fully supported—body, mind, and spirit.

What Is Surrogacy Support?

Surrogacy support at Patients Medical goes far beyond routine prenatal care. We offer an integrative system that includes:

  • Preconception readiness and fertility optimization
  • Prenatal medical monitoring
  • Functional nutrition and supplements
  • Emotional counseling and mental health support
  • Postpartum recovery and wellness

We’re not just here to monitor your labs—we’re here to walk alongside you on this unique path.

Real Story: Nisha’s Surrogacy Journey

Nisha, age 31, came to us for surrogate support after her IVF embryo transfer. Despite being healthy, she felt overwhelmed by fatigue, bloating, and emotional ups and downs.

With our integrative care plan, Nisha received:

  • Weekly acupuncture
  • IV vitamin drips with B-complex and magnesium
  • Herbal teas for nausea
  • Emotional therapy sessions twice a month

By the end of her second trimester, Nisha reported greater calm, energy, and connection to the process. She gave birth to a healthy baby and recovered smoothly with our postpartum protocols.
