Finding Your Green Flags in LGBTQ+ Fertility with Dr. Theisen, RE and REI Specialist at PREG

In this episode, we are honored to sit down with Dr. Graham Theisen, a reproductive endocrinologist at PREG (Piedmont Reproductive Endocrinology Group) and a father of two via surrogacy. 🤗

Dr. Theisen blends his professional expertise with his personal experience, sharing how his own journey as an intended father shapes the empathetic care he provides to his patients every day.

In this episode, we chat about:

👨‍⚕️ Dr. Theisen’s Dual Advice — What he’s learned as both a doctor and an intended parent

🏠 Logistics To Consider — Like why moving your embryos to your surrogate’s local clinic might make more sense than flying her to your clinic

🧬 Important Things to Keep in Mind When Using a Donor — Questions you’ll want to ask yourself before your journey begins

🚩 Red Flags to Watch For — How to "shop around" for clinics and agencies that prioritize transparency over speed

🤝 The Art of the Match — Why changing your criteria (like looking for an experienced mom!) can lead to a smoother process

If you’re an intended parent feeling the weight of all your “to-dos," Dr. Theisen’s unique perspective is the reassurance you need to keep moving forward with confidence!
