Dr. Kristen Ritchey grew up in Southern Pennsylvania in Bedford County. After high school, she attended undergrad at St. Francis University in Pennsylvania. After graduation, she went onto Veterinary School at Ohio State University where she graduated from in 2015. She enjoys doing eyelid surgeries, repairing skin wounds, and removing skin masses. These surgeries are a favorite because she can make her patients more comfortable and also maybe a little bit more beautiful than when they first came in!
Outside of work, Dr. Ritchey loves to spend time with her husband and son. She also has 2 rescue animals: An orange tabby cat named Julius (JuJu) and the sweetest, laziest pit-bull named Captain. Dr. Ritchey enjoys bike riding, reading, and watching true crime shows on Netflix [citation].
