If we go for surgery ,which is the best hospital for it at Hyderabad
Brief Answer:
see a surgical gastroenterologist
Detailed Answer:
If I were to be her treating doctor, I would suggest an endoscopy first. It is essential to rule out acid peptic disease before labeling gall stone as the cause of pain. If the pain is indeed due to gall stone, then it is an acute condition and she may benefit from surgery.
I believe global hospital is well known for laparoscopic surgery in Hyderabad. You can visit this centre for further evaluation. As described above, you can ask for surgical gastroenterologist there.
Let me know if you need clarifications.
