Jamie R. Moore, NP

I have been an athlete since I was young. I started gymnastics at age five, and most of my hours were spent in the gym practicing. A lifestyle encompassing fitness and wellness became a true passion of mine. I enjoy motivating others to be healthy, whether through nutrition or exercise. Becoming a nurse has helped broaden my ability to promote health.

I started my career as an orthopedics registered nurse and became familiar with musculoskeletal injuries and conditions and orthopedic treatments. I then joined a hospital-based acute pain service team and attended a graduate program to become a nurse practitioner. Afterward, I worked as a pain management nurse practitioner in an outpatient practice.

With pain control, patients can heal, obtain or regain optimal functioning, participate in physical therapy or fitness regimens designed to improve their conditioning and strength, and achieve a better quality of life.

At NYU Langone Huntington Medical Group, I manage neck and low back pain, neuropathic pain, pain related to various rheumatological disorders, cancer pain, and chronic migraine. Many of my patients also have shoulder, hip, or knee joint pain.

I perform injections of botulinum toxin, often known by its trade name, Botox, to manage chronic migraine headaches and trigger point injections for muscle pain and spasms. I also provide certification for the use of medical cannabis for various conditions.

I work with a team of healthcare providers to develop the best plan of care for our patients, whether this involves a conservative approach or minimally invasive interventional pain procedures. Our main goal is to improve pain, functioning, and quality of life. We also hope to avoid the need for major invasive procedures and provide people with the confidence and comfort they need to return to the activities they enjoy.

I help my patients understand the various treatment options offered by our practice, including Coolief, which is a cooled radiofrequency ablation procedure, and epidural steroid injections for neck and back pain. In addition, we offer the Vertiflex and Intracept procedures; minimally invasive lumbar decompression, also known as the MILD procedure; and spinal and peripheral nerve stimulation. We understand how pain can significantly impact quality of life and want to help patients make the best decisions to manage their pain.

I provide quality care by actively listening to patients’ concerns, answering their questions without judgment, and providing them with multiple ways to manage their pain.

I am a member of the American Society for Pain Management Nursing, American Association of Nurse Practitioners, and the National Association of Orthopaedic Nurses.
