Endometriosis Surgeon Near Capitola, CA

Endometriosis occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. The condition can cause inflammation, adhesions, scar tissue, and pain that may change throughout the menstrual cycle. Because symptoms can overlap with pelvic floor dysfunction and other gynecologic conditions, meaningful care begins with a thorough evaluation rather than assuming every patient needs the same treatment.

Dr. Sienna Titen is an MD physician who specializes in pelvic pain and endometriosis. She is trained in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery and provides advanced care for patients who need more than routine symptom management. When surgery is appropriate, she may perform endometriosis excision, hysterectomy, or another minimally invasive procedure based on the patient’s symptoms, health history, and goals.

Surgery is not automatically the first step. Many patients also benefit from working with, Alex Beaudoin, DPT, the pelvic floor physical therapist at Nurture Women’s Health and Fertility. Pelvic floor tension, spasms, muscle dysfunction, and scar restriction can mimic endometriosis symptoms or make existing pain feel worse. Physical therapy may help reduce pain, improve mobility, prepare tissue before surgery, and support healing afterward.

Amber’s Story

Here’s how we helped Amber:

“Everyone in the Nurture office seems so sweet and willing to help. Specifically, Dana is absolutely amazing, I would recommend her to everyone. She truly takes the time to get to know you and your needs, and she makes you feel like family. I actually get excited to go see her and I typically hate doctors appointments. She gets to the root cause of the issue, instead of covering issues with medications. You won’t regret your decision to see her.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What Type of Surgeon Treats Endometriosis?

Endometriosis surgery is usually performed by a gynecologic surgeon with advanced training in minimally invasive procedures. Patients may specifically look for a physician who regularly evaluates pelvic pain and performs endometriosis excision rather than treating the condition only with medication.

Dr. Titen specializes in pelvic pain and endometriosis and provides minimally invasive surgical care when a procedure is appropriate.

Does Everyone With Endometriosis Need Surgery?

No. The right treatment depends on the patient’s symptoms, goals, previous care, and the extent to which pain affects daily life. Some patients benefit from pelvic floor physical therapy, medical management, or other conservative options before surgery is considered.

Surgery may become part of the plan when symptoms remain severe, a deeper gynecologic condition is suspected, or previous treatments have not provided enough relief.

Can Pelvic Floor Therapy Help Before Endometriosis Surgery?

Yes. Pelvic floor therapy may help address muscle tension, spasms, mobility restrictions, and tissue guarding before a procedure. Improving pelvic floor function beforehand may also help patients enter recovery with less muscular dysfunction.

Therapy can (and should!) continue after surgery to support scar mobility, restore muscle function, improve movement, and reduce lingering pelvic pain or nerve damage/dysfunction.
