Celebrating 25 years with WRO! 🎉

For the past 25 years, Noelella has been a dedicated and valued part of the WRO family. She shares that one of the biggest changes she’s seen over the years is how the company has become less regimented and more active in the community—something she truly appreciates being a part of.

Noelella loves her job and the flexibility it offers, and she’s especially proud of going back to school later in life to become a RHIT/medical coder. Combined with 25 years at the same organization, that is an incredible accomplishment!

Some of her favorite memories include the old Christmas parties hosted at the doctors’ homes and the many moments shared over the years with Dr. Johnson, Dr. Wilkes, and Gloria. When asked what makes WRO such a great place to work, she says it’s the people and the doctors who make every day meaningful.

And if she had to describe her 25 years at WRO in one word? “Rewarding”… although “busy” might fit too. 😊

Thank you, Noelella, for your loyalty, hard work, and the lasting impact you’ve made over the past 25 years. We are so grateful to have you as part of the WRO family! 💙
