About the Procedure

What is Cholecystectomy Surgery?

Cholecystectomy is the surgical removal of the gallbladder, most often performed for gallstones or gallbladder inflammation. Almost all cases in India today are done laparoscopically through small keyhole incisions, allowing a short hospital stay and quick return to normal activity.

Who may be considered?

Cholecystectomy Surgery may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

The gallbladder is removed through 3–4 small keyhole incisions using a camera and specialised instruments, avoiding the larger cut used in open surgery.

Our methodology

How GAF Healthcare selects doctors

Doctors may be included when they meet relevant criteria for cholecystectomy surgery. This is a transparent listing methodology, not a clinical recommendation or paid ranking:

01

Relevant specialty

gastroenterology expertise is mapped from the doctor's listed specialty and profile information.

02

Procedure relevance

cholecystectomy surgery is listed among the doctor's procedures or areas of expertise, using matching terms where appropriate.

03

Hospital affiliation

The doctor is currently affiliated with a recognised hospital in the GAF directory. Hospital details and availability can change, so confirm them before booking.

04

Professional experience

Experience is displayed from the doctor's available professional profile and is used as the ordering signal when the page lists doctors.

05

Data verification

Doctor and hospital information is checked against the records available to GAF and updated when new information is supplied. It is not a substitute for confirming credentials directly.

06

No paid ranking

Being featured does not automatically mean the doctor is ranked number one. GAF does not sell position on this page.
