The gallbladder plays an important role in storing and distributing bile for digestion, but it is not necessary to survive. The gallbladder is considered a non-essential organ. If it is causing health issues, it can be removed without a serious health threat. Danny Shouhed, MD offers minimally-invasive robotic gallbladder removal surgery with hidden incisions, providing the best possible outcomes and long-term benefits for his patients.

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Shouhed's office! I was referred for Gallbladder surgery and it was a seamless and easy process from start to finish. Dr. Shouhed is attentive, kind, and very detailed in his responses and made sure I got all my questions answered in depth. He also did a fantastic job with the surgery and I'm excited for the minimal scars and getting back to normal life!
Thank You Dr Shouhed and your office team. From appointment scheduling, pre and post op follow up , everything was smooth and easy. Most of all, an amazing job removing my gallbladder made my recovery so easy.
Dr. Shouhed removed my gallbladder one week ago. He was extremely thoughtful throughout the entire process and explained everything really well. The surgery was a success, and I already feel 100% back to normal 8 days after surgery. I highly recommend him!
Dr. Shouhed is amazing with helping you diagnosing your issues, and making sure that we are doing enough testing to rule out any other issues that could be causing your symptoms. I look forward to doing surgery and getting back to my normal life again.
