Dr. Amy Moore: "Everyone Can Be a Shining Light" – A “Giants in Plastic Surgery” Interview PRS Global Open Deep Cuts

    • Medicine

In this convivial “Giants in Plastic Surgery” episode of the PRS Global Open Deep Cuts Podcast, Amy Moore MD discuss her rapid rise to becoming the Chair of the department of plastic and reconstructive surgery at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. Recounting the valuable inspiration of Dr. Susan Mackinnon and mentorship she received in academic plastic surgery, Dr. Moore explores both the decisions she made and their inherent trade-offs. Chronicling her experiences of being a mother, surgeon, researcher and leader, Dr. Moore offers insights of value to budding surgeons, and—like Dr. Mackinnon was for her—an example for aspiring women to visualise a career in surgery and research.

Dr. Moore received her medical degree at the Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine and completed her general surgery residency, peripheral nerve research fellowship and plastic and reconstructive surgery fellowship at Washington University School of Medicine. She then completed a hand fellowship at Mayo Clinic.
As a committed surgeon-scientist, Dr. Moore has developed a parallel translational science research program with more than $1 million in funding from the Department of Defense (DoD). She has extensively published her clinical and translational research findings with more than 100 peer-reviewed journal articles and chapters.
A passionate educator and a tireless advocate for her mentees, Dr. Moore has lectured at conferences around the world. In 2017, Dr. Moore was designated as the American Society for Surgery of the Hand’s Plastic Surgery Visiting Professor. She was recently named the 2019-20 Plastic Surgery Foundation Visiting Professor, an honour bestowed on select individuals nationally each year.
Her dedication to her field is manifested in her service and leadership roles on national and international associations and boards. She serves on the scientific advisory board for the International Symposium of Neural Regeneration and has participated on multiple study sections for the DoD. She also has leadership roles on the Board of the American Association of Hand Surgery and the American Society for Peripheral Nerve.
