Are you suffering from stomach pain, nausea and indigestion caused by gallbladder stones? But patients often delay seeking treatment because they view surgery as invasive, painful and involving significant downtime.
At Cosmocare Piles & Hernia Center in Dubai, Dr. Murtaza Pithawala offers laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery provides fast relief, minimal downtime and discreet care from a highly experienced surgeon.
Over time, components in bile—mainly cholesterol or bilirubin—can crystallize, forming gallstones that vary in size from a grain of sand to as large as a golf ball. Some people may have a single stone, while others develop multiple stones.
When gallstones block the bile ducts, they can cause pain, nausea, and inflammation, requiring gallbladder removal surgery. The most effective and widely accepted treatment today is Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy—a minimally invasive keyhole surgery that safely removes the diseased gallbladder.
Gallbladder surgery, medically known as cholecystectomy, is the removal of the gallbladder, typically due to gallstones, gallbladder polyps or inflammation.

The removed gallbladder exits through one of the small keyhole incisions. Patients experience less pain, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery compared to open surgery.
