Not always. A woman I know had so many gallstones that they had to cut into her liver (to remove the common bile duct), and they left two surgical clips (Titanium, so they won't rust) on her liver for support. She's had it there since 1988, with no problems.
However, I think you should talk to your doctor about it if it bothers you. You should have been informed about them.

Is it normal for surgical clips to be left in after gallbladder removal surgery?
Surgical clips are necessary when getting your gallbladder removed. When your gallbladder is removed, it leaves an opening in your common bile duct. Normally this opening is where the liver pumps bile into for storage in the gallbladder. Since you no longer have a gallbladder, if this opening was not sealed with surgical clips, your liver would essentially be pumping bile into your abdomen.

This is not advised because the surgery site will be in between the left and right mammary chains where the kittens are nursing.

However, it is technically possible provided you are ready for the task of after-surgery care.
