Women with endometriosis in Ventura, CA, seeking minimally invasive treatment now have improved access to advanced robotic medical technology.

Arroyo Grande, United States, October 4, 2026 /PressCable/ -- Lotus Endometriosis Institute has announced that women in Ventura, CA, and surrounding areas now have access to robotic excision surgery for endometriosis, led by Dr. Steven Vasilev. The expansion gives local patients an additional option for diagnosis and treatment, particularly those who have not found lasting relief through medication management or previous surgical approaches.

Surgical excision remains the gold-standard method for diagnosing and treating superficial peritoneal endometriosis, while specialized imaging can sometimes identify deep infiltrating endometriosis before surgery. Unlike ablation, which burns the surface of the disease, excision removes endometriosis at its roots, helping reduce the risk of recurrence and protect fertility.
The availability of robotic-assisted surgery offers patients another approach to treating the condition. “Research on robotic-assisted procedures suggests faster recovery, reduced blood loss, and less scarring compared with open surgery and, in some cases, traditional laparoscopy," said a spokesperson for Lotus Endometriosis Institute. "For many patients, these advantages can also mean a quicker return to daily routines.”
The Institute performs excision surgery using the da Vinci robotic system, which features three-dimensional optics and wristed instruments capable of finer movements than standard laparoscopic tools. The technology gives surgeons greater control during delicate procedures, supporting careful dissection in areas where conventional laparoscopy may be limited.
Dr. Vasilev, the lead physician at Lotus Endometriosis Institute, is a quadruple board-certified surgeon with more than 30 years of experience in minimally invasive and robotic excision surgery. He is also a fellowship-trained gynecologic oncologist with experience handling complex, multi-organ procedures involving the bowel, bladder, and ureters, which require specialized surgical judgment and experience beyond routine gynecologic training.
“That background is particularly relevant for patients whose endometriosis has spread beyond the reproductive organs or who have undergone previous surgeries without lasting relief,” the spokesperson added.
The Institute provides surgical evaluation and excision care for patients with suspected endometriosis, adenomyosis, and complex pelvic pain through its locations in Santa Monica and Arroyo Grande. Extending access to Ventura and nearby communities means patients no longer have to travel as far for evaluation and treatment.
Women experiencing suspected endometriosis or related pelvic pain are invited to contact Lotus Endometriosis Institute to discuss their treatment options.
