The Inspired Impact Podcast with Judy Carlson-Interview with Lauren Shapiro, MD, Radiation Oncologist
About this Episode
Lauren, a native of Madison, WI, graduated with a B.S. in Molecular Biology and Spanish from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. She then earned her M.D. at Stanford University, where she was awarded a Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) research scholarship to study osteosarcoma at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) in Washington, D.C. She completed her internship at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center in San Jose, CA, followed by a residency in radiation oncology at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City.
After residency, Lauren joined the faculty of the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center, where she focused on thoracic radiation oncology and helped develop a spine stereotactic radiation program. In 2014, she transitioned to The Permanente Medical Group, serving as a radiation oncologist at Kaiser Permanente in Northern California and later as regional lymphoma subspecialty lead until her departure in 2023. She then joined the University of Colorado Department of Radiation Oncology, where she served on the faculty until June 2025.
Lauren is currently pursuing additional training in palliative care while continuing to provide locum tenens radiation oncology coverage across Colorado and California. She is passionate about delivering evidence-based, patient-centered care—a commitment that is deeply personal and influenced by her experiences watching both of her parents undergo cancer treatment.
The desire to be closer to friends and family—and a shared love of the outdoors—brought Lauren and her family to Colorado. She resides in Morrison with her husband, Anthony, a native of England who runs a consulting practice specializing in cell and gene therapies. Together they enjoy the lively company of their two children, Anna and Charlie, along with an ever-growing menagerie of pets. As a family, they love hiking, gardening, sharing tea and biscuits, and catching up on sleep whenever possible.
