Every Dr and program is different. My Dr didn't include free fills for a year, only the first three months. I understand your frustration though because I've been unhappy with my Dr as well.

That's not the rule with all.....if there's another doctor or aftercare clinic you are interested in, just call and ask!! I did not use my surgeon for my fills for the first 2 years. The doctor that did my fills just charged me for a regular office call and I paid my regular co-pay.

Yes if you go to another doctor they will likely charge you (or your insurance if applicable) for your fills...I don't see them allowing you to transfer your free fill offers to them.

I am guessing you won't be able to "transfer" that program over. Although, if there is another clinic that your interested in, I don't see why they wouldn't take you. They just wont honor your old doc's program...
