Rogers, Brock & Barker Veterinary Surgeons - Blythe Bridge

Rogers, Brock & Barker Veterinary Surgeons is a small-animal practice established in the early 1970s. The website states it provides 24/7 emergency cover, with MiNightVet Stoke delivering an on-site, dedicated emergency service staffed through the night. Reviews most often describe routine, hands-on care such as nail clipping (including doing it with the pet in the car) and thorough check-ups with vaccinations, with some owners also mentioning help with injuries after cat fights. Pricing feedback is mixed: one recent reviewer calls the practice “very very expensive”, while another says the price is fair for the service provided.
