. search dtobit 

points to a detailed discussion: 

STB-56  sg144 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  Marginal effects of the tobit model
        (help dtobit if installed)  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  R. Cong
        7/00    pp.27--34; STB Reprints Vol 10, pp.189--197
        provides four forms of marginal effects for a tobit model
        and discusses the McDonald and Moffitt decomposition

Experts may be able to tell you what this can do that can't 
be done using -mfx- after -tobit-.
