Is there a way to remove gallstones naturally with a drink or is surgery the only remedy?

Yes: Surgery is the gold standard there are meds called actigall (ursodiol) but as soon as you stop them the stones come back.

Surgery: While there may be some folk remedies, there is no proven way to rid oneself of gallstones without removing the gallbladder surgically. All patients with stones, however, do not necessarily require surgery, as some cases are asymptomatic.

Good alternatives: The standard treatment for gallstones is removing the gallbladder;i believe this should be the last resort rather than initial treatment.I've had many patients have great success with natural therapies to dissolve gallstones ; flush them out of the liver/gallbladder.See http://www.Townsendletter.Com/july2011/momiracles0711.Html ; the amazing liver and gallbladder flush by andreas moritz ; comment:.
