A member asked:
What kind of doctor to see for gallbladder issues? no stones on ultrasound, hida - function at low end of normal range. should i see general surgeon?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
General surgeon: See a general surgeon for gallbladder problems. Did you have pain with the injection during the HIDA scan, if so the gallbladder should probably be removed. Is there sludge in the gallbladder on ultrasound, or a small contracted gallbladder?
