At Highland House Calls we practice science based medicine.

Dr William Kurmes was born and raised in Flagstaff, Arizona.  After graduating from Flagstaff High School he received his bachelor's degree from Northern Arizona University before attending Colorado State University School of Veterinary Medicine.  He graduated from CSU in 1993 then headed to Chino Valley where he worked for almost five years before returning to Flagstaff and starting Highland House Calls in 1998.  


Dr Kurmes' wife Melanie can be found running the office and assisting Dr Kurmes on calls. She was also born and raised in Flagstaff. Their pride and joy are their two daughters and their families.  Dr Kurmes and Melanie can often be found hiking, doing one of their many hobbies or playing chuck-it with their dog Jemmy.
