Choosing the right specialist for gallbladder stone removal surgery is not just about surgical skill – it is about the entire experience, from getting the right diagnosis to knowing exactly what to expect after surgery. Here is what sets Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi apart:
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the gold standard surgical treatment for symptomatic gallstones worldwide. It is a minimally invasive procedure in which the gallbladder is removed through 3-4 small incisions (0.5-1 cm) in the abdomen, using a camera and specialised instruments.
In some patients, gallstones may migrate into the bile duct (common bile duct stones). This requires additional evaluation and possibly ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) – a procedure in which Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi has advanced therapeutic training. Gutwell’s gastroenterology-led model ensures this complexity is managed under one roof.
Gallbladder stone removal surgery (cholecystectomy) in Gurgaon ranges from ₹50,000 to ₹1,50,000, with the average of around ₹80,000 for a straightforward laparoscopic procedure. The final cost depends on the surgical method, case complexity, hospital facility, and duration of stay. At Gutwell, cost is discussed transparently before any procedure is planned – there are no surprise charges.

Proper aftercare is essential for smooth recovery after Gallbladder Stone Removal Surgery in Gurgaon.
Post-Surgery Aftercare Includes:
The gallbladder is not essential for digestion, and most people live a completely normal life after surgery. With proper dietary guidance and follow-up, digestive function remains stable.
At Gutwell, patients receive guidance on lifestyle and diet to support long-term digestive comfort after surgery.
Yes. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most commonly performed and well-studied surgeries globally. Complication rates are low when performed by trained specialists. Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi at Gutwell ensures thorough pre-operative evaluation to minimise risk.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy typically takes 45-75 minutes. Complex cases involving inflammation or bile duct involvement may take longer.
Most patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery are discharged within 1–2 days. Open cholecystectomy may require 4–7 days.
Desk job or light work: typically within 7–10 days. Physical or manual work: 3–4 weeks. Your recovery timeline will be personalised by Dr Sethi based on your case.
Asymptomatic small stones may be monitored. Oral bile acid therapy can dissolve certain cholesterol stones but has a high recurrence rate and takes months. For symptomatic gallstones or complications, surgery remains the most effective and permanent treatment.
Untreated symptomatic gallstones can lead to acute cholecystitis (infected gallbladder), gallstone pancreatitis, bile duct obstruction, jaundice, or even gallbladder perforation — all of which are medical emergencies. Early surgical treatment avoids these complications.
Yes, for most people. In the first few weeks, a low-fat diet is recommended. Over time, most patients return to a normal diet. The liver continues to produce bile; the gallbladder is not essential for digestion.
The surgery is performed under general anaesthesia, so you feel nothing during the procedure. Post-operatively, mild soreness and shoulder pain (from the gas used) are common and typically resolve within 48–72 hours with prescribed medication.
Cholecystectomy removes the gallbladder surgically. ERCP (Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography) is an endoscopic procedure used to remove stones from the bile duct — it does not remove the gallbladder. Both may be needed in some patients. Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi is trained in advanced therapeutic endoscopy including ERCP.
Most health insurance plans cover laparoscopic cholecystectomy as it is a standard surgical procedure. Coverage depends on your specific policy terms. Gutwell's team can assist with documentation for insurance claims.
Diet alone cannot eliminate existing gallstones. It may reduce symptom frequency, but stones remain. Surgery is recommended for recurring pain, acute cholecystitis, jaundice, or risk of complications. A gastroenterologist evaluation — including ultrasound and liver function tests — is necessary to decide the right course.
A gastroenterologist ensures that the full clinical picture is assessed — including whether the liver, bile duct, or pancreas are involved — before any surgical decision is made. Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi's gastroenterological oversight means you receive a more complete diagnosis and a treatment plan that addresses the root cause, not just the gallstones.
If you are experiencing upper abdominal pain, nausea after meals, or have been told you have gallstones on an ultrasound, do not delay your evaluation. Early diagnosis and timely treatment can prevent complications and significantly improve your quality of life.
Consult Dr Sukrit Singh Sethi — MBBS, MD, DM (Gastroenterology), Senior Consultant & Director at Gutwell Clinic, Sector 27, Gurgaon — for an expert, evidence-based assessment of your gallbladder condition. Whether you need medical management, surgical referral, or advanced endoscopic treatment, Gutwell provides complete, coordinated care under one roof.
