OVERVIEW

Dr. Allan Joseph "Joe" Cribbins III, MD is a board-certified General and Bariatric Surgeon who specializes in the "Art of Bariatrics" utilizing the Ultra Minimally Invasive da Vinci Xi Robotic Surgical System.

Dr. Cribbins is a highly skilled and respected surgeon with over 2 decades of experience and a da Vinci Xi Robotic Surgeon of excellence since 2012.  He is committed to better surgery, better surgical outcomes, and better results for patients.

He is the Medical Director of the Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery Committee program at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano for 15 consecutive years, he has served as the vice-chairman of surgery and has sat on several other medical committees.

Dr. Cribbins has been honored to be recognized among D Magazine’s "Best Doctors" for bariatric surgery for 12 years, named a "Best Doctor" in Collin County by D Magazine since the program inception in 2011, and a 2020 "Texas Super Doctor."

He has built a foundation of trust for over two decades by treating patients like family, and it is the hallmark of his success. He is a compassionate surgeon and prefers that everyone call him, "Joe."

Dr. Cribbins is confident ONE OPERATION CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE. 

Bariatric surgery has been proven to be the most effective and long-lasting way to combat obesity by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Overweight people become resistant to weight loss due to hormones that regulate fat.   Bariatric/Metabolic surgery effectively treats people who are resistant to commercial weight loss, diet, and exercise.  Dr. Cribbins enjoys the "Art of Bariatrics" because weight loss surgery restores health and transforms life.

Dr. Cribbins operates at hospitals that are MBSAQIP accredited centers by the American Society For Metabolic And Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS). The ASMBS awards this MBSAQIP designation to leaders in the field who provide exceptional patient care, demonstrate superior surgical skills, and extraordinary hospital facilities.

Dr. Cribbins and his wife, Heather, have 5 children, 4 dogs, and reside in Dallas, TX.

"I work on an oil rig and being overweight really was making my job a challenge. I knew I needed help losing weight and my doctor said to go to Dr. Cribbins. I had weight loss surgery and lost 60 pounds so far. My job is easier and so is everything else in my life after losing weight. I am excited to see my final weight. Thanks doc!"

"Joe is my man. When I came to my first appointment he said to call him Joe and no doctor has ever said that to me. I am a Texan and love to hunt and fish but and extra 180 pounds made that a challenge. The wife suggested I go see him because her friend did ans the rest is history. I am a new man enjoying the outdoor life again."

"Dr Cribbins is dream of a doctor. Handsome, smart, kind, good listening, and the best surgeon I have ever had! I needed to lose the weight for years and just didn’t know what to do. I had bariatric surgery and all I can ask myself is “why did I wait?” The surgery and the recovery are nothing compared to the poor health I used to have. Thank you sweet Dr. Cribbins for helping me live a better healthy full life. You are my Hero!"

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
