Understanding Gallbladder Surgery (Cholecystectomy)
Gallbladder surgery, medically known as cholecystectomy, is the surgical removal of the gallbladder. Dr. Ruchir Bhavsar, a leading GI and HPB surgeon serving Paldi and surrounding areas of Ahmedabad, specializes in advanced gallbladder surgery techniques including laparoscopic and robotic approaches.
The gallbladder is a small organ that stores bile produced by the liver. When gallstones form or the gallbladder becomes inflamed (cholecystitis), surgical removal becomes necessary to prevent complications and provide relief from pain.
