Can the gallbladder be removed with a lap RNY?

So many people suggest having the gallbladder removed at the time of the surgery. I hope to have a lap RNY. I'm assuming this can't be possible with a lap?? Or would the surgeon do the lap, leaving the five tiny scars, then open me up to remove the gallbladder, leaving another scar??
