Family Hearing – Broomfield

Jennifer La Borde graduated with honors from the University of Colorado at Boulder. A member of her university’s audiology society, ASL (American Sign Language) club, and National Student Speech Language Hearing Association, her studies required her to practice hearing evaluations. She tested her parents, and both showed signs of hearing loss. This connection deepened her love for helping people reconnect with their lives. Proud to be co-owner of Family Hearing, Jennifer loves being part of a team that is excited to provide exceptional patient care. She loves reading and spending time with her family.
