Hi and welcome to HCM.
The best treatment i surgical pricedure since it is very routine today,have minor complciations and recovery is very quick. Also, the cure is permanent and you wont have symptoms right after surgery.Other methods are less invasive but also much less efficient. You can always try with dieatry changes and ursodeoxycolic acids but as i said it wont be siccesful as cholecystectomy is.
Thanks for the query. Wish you good health. Regards
