Lauren Epperson
Nurse Manager, Operating Room & Surgery Scheduling
With over a decade of experience in the surgical arena, Lauren Epperson brings deep clinical expertise and compassionate leadership to her role as Nurse Manager of the Operating Room and Surgery Scheduling. Throughout her career, she has remained dedicated to optimizing patient outcomes, streamlining surgical workflows, and fostering collaborative, high-performing teams in high-pressure environments.
Lauren is passionate about patient outcomes, efficient workflows, and building teams that work hard, support each other, and maybe even laugh a little along the way. From bedside nursing to managing the daily chaos of surgery scheduling, her journey reflects a love for learning, leading, and making a difference in the perioperative world.
She lives in Dahlonega, Georgia, with her husband, two energetic kids, and one very spoiled dog named Teddy. When she’s not juggling OR schedules, she’s active in her church, camping with her family, or yelling encouragement from the ballfield sidelines—sometimes all in the same weekend.
