What Donors Can Expect From Our Staff
At The World Egg Bank (TWEB) we are fortunate enough to work every day with some of the most thoughtful and generous young women; our Egg Donors. We strive to provide the donors with a warm, relaxing, and welcoming environment. Our lobby is reminiscent of a spa, rather than a medical office. Please take a virtual tour of our egg bank and egg retrieval facility:
The staff at TWEB works with donors from start to finish. Beginning with the interview process, we spend time with these women, explain each step of the donation process to them and answer all questions they might have. We then guide her through the screening process including lab work, evaluations, and consultations.
Once a donor is selected for a cycle, the nursing staff will work “hand-in hand” with the donor through all her ultrasounds, blood draws, and injections. Throughout the process we develop a great relationships with our donors.
We have found that consistent and reliable communication is imperative and always having an open line of communication via phone, email, text or in person with the nursing staff makes our donors feel more at ease during this sometimes intimidating process.
When it is time for Egg Retrieval, the nursing staff is with the donor from the start of anesthesia until they are awake and ready to go home. A hand to hold and a smiling face are tremendous comfort to the donors as they drift off to twilight sleep. Providing a positive and tranquil environment is our focus. Our walk to their car with their driver always ends in a big hug. We are with them every step of the way.
Our donors are truly remarkable women and we value each minute we spend with them.

You will arrive at The World Egg Bank (TWEB) at your specified time, dressed in a comfortable outfit of your choosing. Our donor coordinator, Andrea, will be there to greet you and have your final paperwork ready for you to complete. Once paperwork is completed, you will be brought back into the retrieval room, where Andrea and nurse Lisa will prepare you for the procedure. Our anesthesiologist will put you under twilight sedation, comparable to getting your wisdom teeth out.
