Dr. Durbin is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also exceptionally friendly and attentive, particularly when it comes to caring for my newborn. She takes the time to thoroughly explain everything, making sure I feel informed and confident in the care plan. Her careful and gentle approach with my baby instantly puts me at ease, and I always feel relaxed and calm whenever I visit her. It's clear that she truly cares about both the well-being of my newborn and my peace of mind as a parent. Her reassuring demeanor, expertise, and kindness are exactly what I was looking for, which is why I chose her to be the primary provider for my newborn's care. I trust her completely and am so grateful for the exceptional care she provides.

Dr. Durbin is a wonderful primary doctor. I brought my son in for an emergency visit. She immediately sent us to the ER. Dr. Durbin ran some tests and took very good care of my him, she even went so far to look at recent CT scans to help diagnose. Dr. Durbin cares about her patients and has a very good heart.

She is very easy to get along with, especially if she can get along with me. She communicates very well, even with teenagers. She makes herself clear and backs herself up with knowledge/research info. Her wait times are wonderful. We aren't waiting two hours to see her. I actually have recommended two friends to see her. And she sees the whole family, which is a bonus. I am so glad I found Dr. Durbin.

Disclosures

External Professional Relationships

Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
