Dr. Durbin was super great and applied my braces for me when I was 14 and took them off when I was 16 right before prom! He was so nice and always helped me when it came to convincing my mother to get certain things! I was looking for him to see if he was still practicing so I could get work done with him. Really sad to see he's gone. RIP doc, you were awesome!

Mrs. Durbin & Family- My condolences to you all. I was a patient if Dr. Durbin when he initially came to Louisville in approximat ed ly 2005. He eas most personable, very clear in communicating with me. My treatment plan was braces for the second time around! My last visit with Dr. Durbin was in 2013 when during a visit I asked him if he would be willing to be a reference for me as I was in the midst of a job search at age 53! He affirmed "absolutely" immediately! He knew me as a patient and I believe as well as a person. This is your husband and Father's legacy, beyond his professional life. He was down to earth and was a most effective communicator. I will hold you all in prayer. Dr. Durbin reminded me of my Dad who was a self made, down to earth Family Physician. May God bless and comfort you abd your entire family.

Dear Durbin Family,

We just learned of the passing of Dr. Durbin. He was our daughter Orthodontist here in Boynton Beach. Dr. Durbin was so nice, charismatic, a true pleasure to interact with, and so wonderful with children. What a tremendous loss to the dental community.

Our deepest sympathies.

I´m a patient of Dr Durbin. He was an incredibly talented orthodontist and more importantly a great man. He made everyone feel as if they were his only patient. He will be missed.
