I am going to have my LB done by Dr. Cribbins. Anyone have any feedback?

No one knows Dr C?

Dr Cribbibs is in the same office as my dr. I have met him a couple of times and he seems like a very nice man. Though I am not his patient, he says hi to me. I like his smile. Good Luck!

Thanks newimage! That makes me feel good. I know I will feel even better after going to the meeting with Dr. C.

Does Dr. Cribbins take Medicare? Im wandering because I am looking for a bariatric surgeon. I am wanting to do the Lap Band procedure. The surgeons in my hometown dont take Medicare or Medicaid. They will for cholycystectomies and appendectomies,but not for WLS.

Katy Lee,

I will be going to see my Dr this afternoon. I will ask and let you know tomorrow. Have a nice Day!

Hey newimage....what kind of post op diet did your doc put you on. Just wondering if Dr. Cribbins does the same thing.

I went to Dr. Cribbins - he's great! Really took his time with me and his staff is wonderful. He didn't put me on any pre-op diet. After surgery it was liquids then mushies then soft foods. They will give you hand outs so you will have something to refer to. Good Luck!

Thanks for the feedback Shelby! I appreciate it!

Both Dr. Cribbins and Dr. Hamn accept Medicare, but no Medicaid.

I am going to a seminar next thursday @ Dr. Cribbins office. Thanks for the reply. Looking forward to it. By the way from the picture on Dr.Cribbins website he is one nice looking guy. Maybe Ill get lucky. Im hoping they dont deny me.

Good Luck!!!

I called to register for one of Dr. cribbins seminars. I found out that they dont take medicare. I think its going to be difficult to find a surgeon that does. This Bites. Need doctor in the dallas fort worth area that takes medicare. Help!!!
