Hi, I'm Maximus. I asked mom if I could write the review for her, because I had such a great experience that I wanted to tell all the Flagstaff pets about it! Wow is it awesome having a veterinarian come to me, especially being 17 years old. I get pretty stressed out having to go in the car and into an office, so having a mobile veterinarian in town really could not be better for me. I have been seeing Dr. Kurmes for almost two years now. He does my routine check ups and vaccines. I don't mind going in the mobile van- it's actually pretty cool in there, and if I am a good boy I may even get a treat. One time I had an accident, and my ear was cut badly. Dr. Kurmes came to my rescue. He made the whole experience more comfortable for me, and Melanie checked in on me to make sure I was recovering well. She is so caring! I honestly could not ask for a better veterinarian! Thank you Highland House Calls for always being there for me. Love, Max

My cat Bankie was not a regular patient with Dr Kurmes, and although he and his staff are very busy, he responded to our request for my poor pet partner to be assisted in passing. I took a shot in the dark and he was more than willing to fit us in his schedule in order to keep her comfortable at our home for her last moments. I will forever be grateful and will recommend his services to all. Thank you, Dr Kurmes!

Loving, Kind, Gentle and very willing to accommodate my needs. Dr. Kurmes has cared for all of my domestic animals for over 15 years and I trust him completely. I couldn't hope for such loving kindness to my animals and to me. I am very grateful for all the help we have received over the years.

I called on the phone on Monday July 22 asking about a house call for my basenji that was dying. I told her that the vet had come to my house years ago when my Springer Spaniel had died. She said they had no openings until Wed. I said I did not know if my dog would make it that long. On Tues evening I left a message asking if they still had openings for Wed., and said I did not make the appt. on Mon because I did not know if my dog would make it that long. I asked for a call back to have him euthanized on Wed..I never received a call back.

He and his assistant are the very best. He's been my fur babies ( × 3) bestest doctor for over 20 years. God bless them!!
