	Traci Coley is our Patient Accounts Coordinator. When you check in at For Women's Health, she is the smiling face that is there to greet you. She has over 6 years of experience in posting charges and filing insurance claims. Traci resides in Ridgecrest with her husband and two sons. New to this practice, we are so lucky and blessed to have Traci as part of our team!

Mandy Cord is our Medical Office Assistant. When you come to our practice she is the one who takes the blood pressures, heights, and yes-those dreaded weights! She assists the midwives with examinations and performs a variety of duties ranging from venipuncture to administering injections. An Albemarle native, Mandy graduated from Stanly Community College in 1999 with her degree in Medical Assisting. She and Becky Yates also worked together in a previous medical office setting. Mandy states "When I found out that Becky was starting her own practice, I could not have been more excited to join her! I am so lucky to work in this practice with these amazing women and feel very special to have a part in caring for women for life!"			Rosa Zunino is our Spanish Interpreter. Born and raised in Culiacan Sinaloa, Mexico, Rosa and her family moved to Albemarle 6 years ago. Since that time, she has worked actively in the community at various locations such as JT Russell and Sons translating English to Spanish and Spanish to English. Rosa really enjoys helping others with her knowledge and skills. Aside from being an interpreter, Rosa is also a phlebotomist and a fitness buff. You may recognize her from the local YMCA. She really values fitness and health so joining the staff of For Women's Health could not have been more perfect!
