My clinic claimed they did the shopping around for me and had me use Freedom for the bulk of meds (Gonal-F, Cetrotide, Menopur and Novarel). They're having me order my Lupron trigger from SMP Fertility.
Freedom for some things, a local branch of SMP Fertility compounding pharmacy for my PIO and patches.
Freedom was v. good though and I think its prices were competitive. They also had tons of rebate codes and things they applied to my orders. I used them for 3 IUI's and 1 IVF cycle.

I used Mandells. I thought their prices were reasonable. They gave me rebates on Gonal f and Menopur I believe. The price of Lupron with them also just went down by about $400 which was very exciting.
i used freedom but i started to find some cheaper- This time around my insurance covered most and I just had to pay copays If you are interested I do have 7 boxes of menopur 3 gonal f 450 and one cetrotide. $75 for each- I'm just trying to make back my copays but would love to be able to help someone else at the same time
