In 2006, Dr. Satty Gill Keswani, MD joined the practice. Dr. Keswani is a Board-Certified Reproductive Endocrinologist, Holistic Gynecologist, and Infertility Specialist with over 30 years of experience. She has pioneered fertility techniques in artificial insemination since 1990 and has delivered over 1,000 babies. In March 2006 she received a Physician of the Year award from a major national physician organization.
Also in 2006, demand for affordable surrogacy in India grew rapidly. By 2012, more than 25,000 babies had been born to Indian surrogates, with ~50% of intended parents from the USA and Europe. Through IndianEggDonors.com we began offering surrogacy in India for under $30,000 — compared to $100,000+ in the USA — establishing our practice as a dominant presence internationally.
In 2015, India banned surrogacy for non-Indians. In 2016, we expanded to Ghana, Canada, Georgia, and Armenia, ensuring continuity for all intended parents.
In 2008, we established DGA, Inc., registered with New York State Tissue Bank Operations (Facility License #1570) and the Food and Drug Administration (FEI # 3021544308). In 2022 we received NYS Surrogacy Agency License GSP220903 — among the first agencies approved.
Additional licensing: California Tissue Bank License (CTP 00082276, 2021), Maryland Tissue Bank License (2022), and Canada Sperm & Ova Primary Establishment Registration # 000119 (2023).
