Rileigh Ricken, DO

Rileigh is a transitional year intern at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and a proud graduate of Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. She is passionate about orthopedic research, with particular interests in pediatric orthopedics, trauma, sports medicine, and advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion within the field of orthopedics.

Outside of medicine, Rileigh enjoys spending time with her girlfriend and their three golden retrievers—Breck, Nash, and Ridge. You’ll often find them at the beach, in the kitchen trying new recipes, or enjoying a local trivia night. She also plays competitive softball and occasionally unwinds with a good video game.
