Your gallbladder is a small organ located just below the liver on the right side of the body. Its primary function is to store and secrete bile, which helps your body digest fats. A number of medical conditions can affect the gallbladder.

Join us for a discussion to learn more about your gallbladder health including common gallbladder issues, symptoms, risk factors, and ways to maintain a healthy gallbladder during the Weill Cornell Medicine Wellness Series in partnership with the Harry Belafonte 115th Street Library.
