Gov. Jim Justice’s office provided an update on his condition Monday, saying the governor underwent routine gallbladder removal surgery.
According to a release from Gov. Jim Justice’s office, the governor had a successful gallbladder removal surgery Monday afternoon.
The surgery stems from a “sudden flare-up” that Justice had last Thursday and his doctor’s subsequently recommending he get his gallbladder removed. Justice has reportedly never had any gallbladder issues before, his office said.
