I am in the same boat. I found out about 3 weeks ago that the Journeylite Houston office closed due to "constant changes in the Houston market". There goes my free fills/ unfills for life. My doctor charges $40 for a fill/ unfill which isn't bad but his office visit is $100. I was a self-pay patient so choosing a place that allowed unlimited lifetime fills was a plus. I pretty pist about the whole situation and the fact that clients weren't notified by Journeylite before the closing of the office.

Wow that is terrible I only had fills free for a year so my time of free fills has already passed. I had called my doctor

and they had told me the same thing about Journeylite. As a matter of fact the girl that I talked to had worked there and

she said that they came in one morning and said they were closing get your things and leave. They had no clue that

this was going to happen so she is referring everyone to the Journeylite in Cincinnati, but she said that they werent seeing

any resolution throught that either. So it really sucks all around. I had looked online for another fill center and the other that

I found want you to go on their plan and pay upfront for a year, soooo I am prolly just going to go back to my doctor, he is

actually doing the fills in his office now since this happened.

I actually ended up going back to the doctor that did my lap-band surgery. He started doing the fills after JourneyLite left. So I went back to him but I'm in the same boat with having to pay $100 plus office visit whether i get a fill or not. And of course I'm having trouble with my band right now so I wasnt' able to get the fill but because they used the needle and everything I had to pay the full price. It definatley sucks.
