First of all, I have never felt so good about myself. This experience has helped me grow to understand that it is I who controls my body, not the other way around! Dr. Cribbins has always been patient and understands the difficulty in even having the courage to pursue bariatric treatment. His knowledge is beyond exceptional, wonderful bed side manner caring, and compassionate. We love you Dr. Cribbins and look forward to working with you for many years to come. Most of all, thank you for helping me find hope again!!

Da Vinci Surgery FOR GENERAL AND BARIATRIC SURGERY
Texas Center for Bariatrics & Advanced Surgery uses the ultra minimally invasive Da Vinci Xi® surgical system for bariatric and general surgery. This advanced surgical technology eclipses standards set by older technologies, such as traditional laparoscopic surgery.
While laparoscopic was once heralded for its "minimally" invasive capabilities, the Da Vinci Xi raises the standard of minimally invasive care with a high-definition 3D view for the bariatric surgeon. Da Vinci's smaller incisions and greater precision mean less pain, reduced scarring, and faster healing.
The advanced capabilities of Da Vinci Xi are even more enhanced in the hands of our experienced surgeon. Dr. Cribbins has used the Da Vinci Xi system to help bariatric surgery patients lose weight since 2012.
Are You a Candidate For Weight Loss Surgery?
If you have tried diet, exercise, and other weight loss methods but your weight is still an issue, you are not alone: 35% of all Texans are obese. Texas Center for Bariatrics & Advanced Surgery in Plano will work with you to determine which weight loss service is right for you.
Understanding BMI
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a weight-to-height ratio used to qualify patients for bariatric surgery. People with a BMI of 30 or greater qualify for bariatric surgery. We believe that everyone deserves a healthy weight regardless of age, which is why our patients range from 18 to 75 years in age.
An Individual Approach
Our holistic approach allows our doctors to discover what issues may relate to your weight and how to treat them. We assess each patient on an individual basis to determine their candidacy for treatments and which weight loss procedure is best for their health.
We're on Your Team
We'll walk you through every step of your journey and recommend treatments to match your unique circumstances and weight-loss needs. From the initial consultation to post-surgery care, we'll work together as a team and tailor our services for your long-term success.
