Hi and welcome to HCM. Gall bladder stones for most people it will be asymptomatic and if symptoms are their like pain abdomen and vomiting, then surgery is the best option. This your doctor will decide whether you are fit for surgery or not. The surgery is called cholecystectomy, this can be performed laproscopically also in which you will be having minimal scars and will be discharged form hospital in a day or two. All the best
