About Me
As a plastic surgeon at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, I specialize in peripheral nerve surgery for acquired nerve injuries and peripheral neuropathies of the upper and lower extremities. In my line of work, I regularly perform procedures to reanimate limbs, relieve patients’ debilitating pain and restore sensation for those with nerve injuries.
As one of very few peripheral nerve surgeons in the world, I am dedicated to growing this subspeciality to improve patients’ quality of life. I always tell my patients that we are going to be good friends because nerve growth is a years-long process and I am committed to supporting them through the entire journey. My patients inspire me and it is rewarding to see them recuperate and regain function following surgery.
My research is focused on developing treatments to make nerve regrowth more efficient and faster. I am also exploring strategies for rewiring nerves with the goal of preventing muscle atrophy, restoring motion and relieving pain. I have authored more than 100 peer-reviewed journal articles in addition to other publications. I also lead a federally funded translational scientific research investigation of advanced limb reconstruction.
In addition to my clinical work, I am helping to train the next generation of physicians. I am a professor in and serve as the chair of the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. I also serve on the scientific advisory board for the International Symposium of Neural Regeneration, the board of the Plastic Surgery Research Council and the American Society for Peripheral Nerve.

Dr. Moore is always on top of innovative hand care. I appreciate her advice.
Excellent!!! Very engaging & knowledgeable! Would highly recommend!! Hopefully Dr. Moore can offer suggestions for my neuropathy!
She took the time to explain everything.
Dr. Moore takes time to listen to me and has been honest with me about my care from the first day I met her. Her PA, Julie West, has also been exceptional with her care for me. I would recommend them to anyone for a TMR procedure.
Dr. Moore is very nice! It took a long time to get in but once I saw her she was very nice, believed me, and explained everything. She spent enough time with me to ensure I understood the process and what the next steps were.
I felt she and her team were very knowledgeable. They asked questions that demonstrated that they understood how I was feeling and that they knew my disease. (This is VERY unique because many doctors I have seen have to look it up, or tell.mw they know just a little). She rearranged her schedule to get me in at the last minute as I am from out of state. She and her team had a very calming manner and even though they took mer seriously and I felt "heard", we laughed a lot. They made me feel very comfortable and I am confident that they will be able to help me.
The team was very thorough. Dr Moore explained everything very clear. What to expect from the surgery and how the recovery process will be. She explained the therapy process and recovery expectation's.
Dr. Moore is great. Her care for my health issue was life changing. Thank you!
