Arizona Veterinary Dental Specialists - Tucson

Had to find a dental specialist for my senior dog Tito of 19yrs. I spoke with them over the phone and Alexander made me feel very comfortable . We scheduled a visit within 2 days and I met Dr .Bolek . She was amazing and accommodated us with a same day oral cleaning and tooth extraction . The staff on site was amazing pre and post procedure . So HAPPY I found them ! Would recommend them anytime ! #thebest

I can’t say enough good things about this dental veterinary clinic. We’ve brought our cat Tiger here three times now, and each visit has been a wonderful experience. From the moment you walk in, everyone is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable, which makes such a difference when you’re worried about your pet. We’ve seen Dr. Shawna Sawtelle every time, and she is truly exceptional. She always takes her time with us and never makes us feel rushed. She explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand, not only about Tiger’s teeth but her overall health as well. You can tell she genuinely cares about her patients and the people who love them. What stood out to me the most is that we never felt like “just another appointment.” Dr. Sawtelle made us feel heard, respected, and reassured every step of the way. It’s rare to find a vet who combines such deep knowledge with real compassion, and we’re so grateful to have found her.

In my initial consultation, Dr Sawtelle thoroughly answered my questions and inspired confidence that she could take care of my dog’s needs safely. The cost of procedures performed here is daunting, to say the least, but it reflects the education, training, and expertise of the doctors and technicians doing the work, as well as the cost of the specialized equipment required to do their work as safely as it can possibly be done. If I could safely have my dog’s teeth taken care at lower cost somewhere else, I would. Because I can’t do that, due to her health history, I’m willing (and extremely fortunate to be able) to spend a small fortune to do something that my dog requires to be as healthy as possible healthy going forward. When I was initially considering this practice, I was upset to see that some reviewers felt like they had made to feel guilty for not doing the treatment the practitioners had recommended. I did not get that feeling from the staff, but I think it’s easy to feel guilty regardless of what the staff do or don’t say. If you can’t afford to do the procedures they say your pet needs, I encourage you not to feel guilty about it. Instead, do your homework to find the best possible care that you can afford for your pet. Few people have the means to access the level of care provided here for their pets, but that doesn’t make you a bad pet parent. Instead, you should be proud that you’re doing the best you can afford to take care of them.

High praise to this awesome team of professionals! Two years ago my Chihuahua mix had a very traumatic dental cleaning experience. Needless to say I was very anxious. The whole team was kind and caring and took the time to address all my concerns. Communication was excellent from initial scheduling to discharge. I finally found a team I can trust.

Dr. Bolek was able to save our dog's broken canine with a root canal. She is absolutely wonderful. The entire practice is so considerate and caring. Best dental veterinary services ever!
