Crossings Dental shared the news of Walburger’s passing in a Facebook post.

“Today, with heavy hearts, we share the news of the sudden passing of our beloved colleague and leader, Dr. Scott Walburger. It is with profound sadness that we mourn the loss of such an extraordinary individual who touched the lives of countless patients, peers, and friends,” said the post from Crossing Dental.

“Dr. Walburger was more than just a dentist; he was a beacon of healing, education, and unwavering dedication to the highest standard of care. For decades, he selflessly served our community, leaving an indelible mark on all those who had the privilege of crossing his path,” added the post.

He is described as dedicated father of three and a devoted husband, who, in additional to providing exceptional dental expertise, showed love and dedication to his family.

“As we reflect on his legacy, we are reminded of the profound impact he had on our clinic family. Dr. Walburger was not only a boss but a friend to his Team members he led at his three clinics, Crossings Dental, Lethbridge Dental Services South, and Medicine Hat Dental. His kindness, wisdom, and genuine care touched everyone around him, fostering a sense of unity and belonging that will forever be cherished,” said the social media post.

The dental clinics say they plan to carry on Walburger’s legacy.
