Surgical Abortion
Surgical Abortion Procedures are available up to 24 weeks from the start of the last menstrual period, as determined by ultrasound in our office.
A surgical abortion is performed with your choice of local anesthesia (up to 12 weeks only), light sedation with an oral sedative, or intravenous sedation (twilight sleep).
Surgical abortion procedures for early term pregnancies, up to 14 weeks, are usually done in a single visit. For late term pregnancies, 15 to 24 weeks, surgical abortions are done in a 2 step procedure.
Surgical Abortion Follow-up Care
After your surgical abortion a follow-up visit is very important. You must come in for a post-procedure visit 2 to 3 weeks after the abortion. There is no charge for this visit.

State of Arizona Consent
The State of Arizona requires that women having an abortion must have a consultation with the doctor at least 24 hours prior to the procedure. The state requires us to give you certain pieces of information at that consultation. This information can only be given to you in person by one of our doctors. This means that you will need to make two visits to our office, one to receive the state-required information, and once for your abortion procedure. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please understand that this process is required by state law.
