Preparation for Gallbladder Removal Surgery
Gallbladder and reflux symptoms can be interconnected. As part of your reflux evaluation, we will also look for signs of gallstones. If you have both reflux and gallstones, we can perform gallbladder removal concurrently with your reflux surgery. This approach ensures comprehensive management of both conditions. Before undergoing a cholecystectomy procedure, your healthcare provider will provide detailed instructions on how to prepare for the surgery. This may include fasting as well as guidelines for managing any current medications you are taking. Follow these instructions closely to ensure a safe and successful procedure.
