Gallbladder removal: what to expect at Spire Elland Hospital
To start with, you’ll have a consultation where a consultant will discuss your medical history, along with the benefits and risks of the procedure. They’ll determine the best approach, whether that’s simple keyhole surgery or open surgery. Both are simple to perform; the latter just requires larger incisions and a few days in hospital afterwards.
When the day comes, simply arrive at Spire Elland Hospital and the team will take it from there. They’ll take you to your room to relax, then on to theatre where you’ll receive anaesthetic. The operation only takes a few hours at most.
