Updated January 2026
Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Henry Street Vets is part of the Rockhall Veterinary group and is set up for round-the-clock urgent care alongside routine work. The clinic’s website lists a 24-hour emergency service, and recent reviews describe late-evening admissions, overnight hospitalisation for investigation/treatment, and emergency cases like chocolate ingestion and traumatic injury. Owners also mention ongoing medical and surgical care (including pyometra treatment, lump removals, and dental-related investigations), with some describing frequent phone updates during hospital stays. A minority of reviews raise concerns about being refused medication for an unregistered pet, handling of cats during an appointment, and unexpected out-of-hours fee changes around a specific evening cut-off.

  • Neutering (listed on the website).
  • Pet passports (listed on the website).
  • Dental care (listed on the website; one owner describes blood tests and supplements initially, later attributing abnormal liver enzymes to needing dental work).

  • Chris is remembered as part of the night-time staff.

Reviews

  • Conflicting experiences/policies: a reviewer says the clinic refused pain-relief medication because their dog wasn’t registered, despite having records; another describes poor cat handling and being told their cats were “too aggressive” to treat.
