Bio
Dr. Neha Rickson is a board-certified endocrinologist with the Orlando Health Cancer Institute, specializing in the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes as well as thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, parathyroid and other endocrine disorders.
Before joining Orlando Health, she spent more than a decade in private practice in Central Florida honing a skillset that includes:
- Thyroid cancer management
- Fine needle aspiration of thyroid nodules
- Diabetic insulin pump management
- Osteoporosis management
- Chemotherapy and radiation-induced endocrinopathies
- PCOS, adrenal and pituitary disorders
Dr. Rickson tailors each patient’s therapy to their lifestyle. Because the conditions she treats are often lifelong, she enjoys building lasting relationships with her patients and helping them achieve their personal health goals.
Dr. Rickson’s Training
Dr. Rickson attended the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa for both her undergraduate and medical education. She graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in natural sciences and biology and was in the seven-year medical honors program. Dr. Rickson earned her medical degree from USF’s Morsani College of Medicine, where she also completed a residency in internal medicine and performed a fellowship in the endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism program.
About Dr. Rickson
Dr. Rickson grew up around physicians in her family and learned at an early age the importance of dedication and giving back to the community. That community featured many cases of diabetes, which drove her toward pursuing a career in endocrinology. In her community service endeavors, she has a special interest in treating the elderly.
Dr. Rickson is a diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine. Her professional memberships include the American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, Endocrine Society, Florida Endocrine Association, Florida Medical Association and the Central Florida Association of Physicians from the Indian Subcontinent.
Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her family and traveling around the world.

This is a comprehensive list of insurances accepted at Orlando Health hospitals, outpatient services and physician groups. Be sure to contact your individual insurer to verify coverage. Not all providers accept the same insurance. If possible, check with your providers prior to your procedure or appointment to verify coverage.
Why do some Orlando Health physicians not have a patient experience rating?
The Patient Satisfaction Rating is an average of all responses to the care provider related questions, shown above, from our nationally-recognized Press-Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients that are treated in outpatient or hospital environments may receive different surveys, and the volume of responses will vary by question.
Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and do not necessarily reflect the views of Orlando Health.
Ratings may not be present for certain physicians of Orlando Health Physician Group and Orlando Health Physician Associates because:
- The physician has not yet met the minimum number of 30 patient satisfaction surveys to be eligible for display.
- They may be a researcher or type of provider that does not see patients.
- They may practice in a specialty or office that has not yet implemented the specified surveys used for these ratings.
