Stewart Vets in Dudley is part of CVS and offers a broad range of routine veterinary care, surgery, diagnostics, grooming-related services, home visits and exotic pet appointments, with MiNightVet covering nights and weekends. Recent feedback is mixed: several owners praise the welcoming reception team and helpful vets, with specific praise for Victoria and Tom, while two detailed negative reviews raise concerns about one dog case that was not successfully diagnosed and one snake consultation where the owner felt the vet lacked confidence handling the animal.
Services
- •Routine and preventive care: consultations, nurse consultations, six-month health checks, vaccinations, parasite control and microchipping.
- •Treatment and procedures: neutering, other surgery, dentistry, diagnostics including blood pressure checks, and repeat prescriptions.
- •Nurse and support services: grooming, nail clipping and anal sac expression.
- •Extra access and species range: home visits are listed, and the practice website says it sees birds, reptiles and other exotic animals. Recent reviews include a budgie consultation where Tom examined the bird and listened to its heart, while one snake owner reports a poor experience with exotic care.
- •Out-of-hours care: when the practice is closed at night or on weekends, clients are directed to MiNightVet for free telephone advice and emergency consultations if needed.
Pricing
Published prices suggest the clinic sits below average, based on a partial sample of comparable services. In recent reviews, one owner felt charges around euthanasia were high and said costs seemed to be prioritised, but there is little other recent written comment on pricing.
People
