Core Tip	Many people now use the Internet for medical information. There have been many studies evaluating the available information on YouTube, which is one of the most popular sources of medical information. In this paper, we present the first report of an evaluation of YouTube videos on gallstone disease. More than half of the videos were misleading, and there was no correlation between video quality and the number of views or number of likes. Credible videos uploaded by medical professionals, and a filtering process appear to be necessary.
