Lauren Quintana

Lauren Quintana is a Board-Certified/Licensed Prosthetist/Orthotist at CPO Arlington Heights, specializing in pediatric orthotics with a particular expertise in Cranial Remolding Orthoses (CRO). Lauren’s approach to care is defined by a unique blend of high-level clinical expertise and a deep, personal understanding of the impact orthotic solutions have on a child’s quality of life.

Lauren’s passion for the field began during her own childhood. After wearing foot orthotics as a child, Lauren experienced firsthand how the right care could alleviate pain and improve daily life. Today, she is dedicated to "paying that quality forward." She earned her degree in Neuroscience from Carthage College before completing her Master’s in Prosthetics and Orthotics at the University of Pittsburgh. Before joining CPO in March 2025, Lauren honed her skills at the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, gaining invaluable experience in complex pediatric hospital settings.

"I am dedicated to balancing clinical expertise with parent and patient goals," Lauren explains. "Whether we are improving alignment, enhancing cosmetic appearance, or avoiding surgery, no goal is too small when it comes to our smallest patients."

Lauren joined the CPO team in March 2025 and is currently accepting new pediatric patients at our Arlington Heights location.
