• Compton Native Embodies Resilience, Sets Her Sights on Inspiring Others

Riverside, CA, February 22, 2022

Dr. Tiffanie Tate Moore has hit her stride, but it took an existential crisis to land her where she is today. Born and raised in Compton, she witnessed and experienced profound loss, and even survived being shot in the back during a Bible study session. And yet, she dreamt of one day becoming a doctor—a beacon of health and life for others. And after serving in the U. S. Navy during the Global War on Terrorism, she indeed became a successful OB/GYN. But after devoting her life to saving others, her own life took an unexpected turn.

“After spending most of my life working to become a physician, I was utterly devastated to have my profession take away from me,” Dr. Moore said in a recent interview. “I became depressed, but I hid it well with a fake smile that I painted on my face.”

Dr. Moore suffered a serious fall that left her with injuries to her wrists, knees and ankle, and resulted in a permanently frozen right wrist. In 2019, she had to medically retire at the young age of 44.

Lost without her profession, Dr. Moore immersed herself in her children, her church and her sorority. Her injuries coupled with six surgeries in two years left her with mobility limitations and chronic pain. And yet, she continues to walk in half-marathons despite tremendous physical discomfort.

The ability to overcome seemingly insurmountable hurdles seems to be woven into Dr. Moore’s DNA. But she says she draws her strength and resilience from a much more powerful force.

“God is still speaking to us in this day and age; we just need to open our spiritual eye and ear to see and hear Him,” Dr. Moore says.

In addition to leaning on her faith, Dr. Moore began writing as an outlet for her emotions. Her new book, FloweTry: A Collection of 108 Poetic Flows on Life, Love, and Liturgical Issues, candidly and poignantly dives into the topics of our times, including COVID, politics, Black history and police brutality. She also speaks of love and community, and includes an entire section of verses intended to encourage readers to take a closer walk with Christ.

Dr. Tiffanie Tate Moore is a first-time author from Compton, California. She is a graduate of UC Santa Barbara where she earned her Bachelor of Science degree in cellular and developmental biology, with a Black studies minor. After earning her medical doctorate degree from Meharry Medical College and completing her OB/GYN Internship at Naval Medical Center San Diego, she went on to serve as a General Medical Officer for the Sea Bees. She served during Operation Enduring Freedom and the Global War on Terrorism. Dr. Moore completed her obstetrics and gynecology residency at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee, and practiced for 20 years before sustaining a hand injury that led to her medical retirement. Her life experiences, including those she’s shared with her friends, have overflowed into FloweTry.
