Fill Centers USA ... problems and questions

Hey all,

If you're familiar with Fill Centers USA, I'd like your feedback regarding their fill policy. They say if you get an overfill, you can come back within 72 hours and get it emptied at no additional charge. However, for underfills, there is no protection and you're charged an additional 165.00!! This doesn't seem fair. My doctor (the only Fill Center doc in Utah) is conservative, and I got a fill yesterday and I'm still feeling no restriction. Any comments or suggestions?

Also, when I signed up for their services a couple of years ago, they promised me 150.00 for fills. Then they upped their rate despite their statement that fills would always be 150.00. This also seems shady to me. But they stood their ground.

Susan asked for this thread to get back on topic well over a week ago. Is there a reason you decided to fuel the fire?

No kidding.

Delrio: :rolleyes:

Hey all! I just ran across this thread today... I use Fill Centers.. and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM! They are not condescending, do not belittle me for my choices, are very attentive to my needs/wishes.. and I get EXCELLENT followup! With the economy the way it is now, I know we are all having added financial probs; perhaps that is the reason there is such tension here? I have never seen this kind of back-and-forth arguing on this site. I think we all need to realize we are in the same boat here and we all have the same goals........ a healthier, happier life style. Lets help each other out and not attack? God Bless and Good Luck! Hope to see "less" of you in the future!

I have a hunch it is BECAUSE it has been a week since the fires were fueled.

There are good FillCentersUSA and bad ones. They are random health care providers throughout the country that contract with FillCentersUSA. Some are absolutely great, some aren't so hot. I do wish they'd tighten up the requirements to contract with them, at this point you don't even have to be an RN to do fills. That is something I fully disagree with.

Some of their staff are MDs, some are NPs, some are RNs, some are LPNs, one is a non licensed paramedic.

Me... I wanted an RN or more messing with my band. I ended up just going back to my surgeon, I felt better that way.

Well, that is very interesting Bubble... I never knew much of this. The person doing my fills is a surgeon, and he is GREAT! He takes his time and listens to MY CARES and what I WANT.. I went to him at first because he was the closest to me, but he travels back and forth between 2 clinics and I make my schedules so that I am sure to see him and ONLY HIM.. Best of luck to everyone out there trying to find the "Best Fit"..

Yes the doctors are in this to make money!! If you were worried about paying for fills, maybe you should have considered going to a doctor where all fills are covered..

A good friend of mine advised me that you can't buy a car and not be able to afford the gas... :)
Bravo!!! Well said:thumbup:

LOL...I recently heard a funny update to "why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free." Here it is:

Why buy the whole pig when all you really want is a little sausage?
