Seven Florida hospitals made Newsweek Magazine’s Best Maternity Care Hospitals 2021 list. So no matter what part of Florida you call home, as a surrogate, you have great options for maternal health care during your surrogacy journey. Here are the seven hospitals that made the list: AdventHealth DeLand, AdventHealth Tampa, Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola, Lakewood Ranch Medical Center, Sacred Heart Hospital On The Emerald Coast, St. Lucie Medical Center, and Tampa General Hospital.
Florida families from all different backgrounds are dreaming of building their families with the help of a surrogate. Because surrogacy is the most successful treatment for infertility, more and more people are turning to surrogacy. There are many reasons people need to use a surrogate to have children. For instance, meet Miamian Ashley Katzen, who shared why using a surrogate was the best choice for her and her husband. At sixteen, Ashley was diagnosed with vaginal agenesis, also known as Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser (MRKH) syndrome. While she had eggs, her uterus and cervix were missing. At such a young age, the struggle was unimaginable, but she credits the experience for preparing her for IVF and her surrogacy journey. Knowing that she had viable eggs, it was never not an option for her to have children that were genetically hers and she always knew that surrogacy was the route she would go. Your gift of family can help other Florida people like Ashley and Jonathon achieve their dream of becoming parents.
Our superwoman, our surrogate Jenna, has been the light in our life during the darkest of times. She is the reason we were able to meet the blessing that I spent half of my life preparing for. There truly aren’t enough words to express our most sincere appreciation towards the work she has put in to bring this baby boy into the world.

Gestational Surrogacy is permitted by statute in Florida (Ch.742.15 FL Stat.) for married couples who are allowed to file Petitions for Affirmation of Parental Status. However, other Intended Parents are still able to do surrogacy in Florida, either only by filing paternity and maternity petitions or through pre-planned adoptions. Florida does not grant traditional pre-birth orders, but many courts will grant interim orders for medical decisions and paternity. However, a post-birth order must be obtained before a birth certificate with the parents’ names on it can be issued. At the hospital, the surrogate will need to fill out the birth certificate information but her information is merely a placeholder until that final order can be issued
No. A ConceiveAbilities surrogate does not share any genetics with the baby they are carrying for another family. Learn more about the difference between traditional and gestational surrogacy from Dr. Shapiro of RBA Atlanta.
