We are dedicated to keeping pets as pain-free as possible before, during, and after surgery. Pain management is always a concern with any procedure or treatment. We provide pain medication before, during, and after surgery to ensure your pet’s comfort. We also make sure that adequate pain medication is sent home following any surgical procedure.

Whether it is a routine surgery such as a spay or neuter or more advanced surgery such as bladder stone removal or fracture repair, you can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is in compassionate hands at Arizona Animal Wellness Center.

Anesthesia and Patient Monitoring

We use the safest anesthetic options available and we provide the same level of patient monitoring that is used in human medicine. We will never leave your pet’s side while under anesthesia. We monitor all of your pet’s vital signs with state-of-the-art equipment as well as manual techniques. We will always make sure that your pet recovers from surgery in a warm and comfortable way while being cared for by a trained professional.

Radiosurgery - "A pain-less surgical option"

In an effort to reduce post-operative pain and promote tissue healing with surgery, the doctors at Arizona Animal Wellness Center use the Ellman Surgitron Radiosurgery Unit. This advanced technology uses radio waves through a handheld unit that is used in place of a scalpel blade and is similar to a laser. It provides exceptional surgical control, precision, and safety. Because it is an atraumatic way of performing surgery it reduces discomfort, minimizes scar tissue formation and blood loss, and has excellent cosmetic results.

Some of the surgical procedures we can perform using the Radiosurgery Unit include:

• Removal of growths on the skin

• Oral Surgery including oral tumor removal

• Gingivectomy

• Anal Gland Surgery

• Ear Surgery

• Orthopedic Surgery

• Abdominal Surgery

• All general Surgeries (spays and neuters)

The doctors and team at Arizona Animal Wellness Center feel that our surgical procedures, pain management techniques, and after-care are the best available in veterinary medicine. We strive to provide the most advanced and compassionate care. Your pet’s safety is our utmost concern.
