Jennifer Valdez, HAD, has been licensed to dispense hearing aids in California since 2014. She has extensive experience working in medical settings and was a part of a private hearing practice before purchasing Hearing Solutions. Through her dedication to providing affordable, expert hearing services, she has earned the trust of hundreds of patients, from 4 years old to 100+. Jennifer has helped people with all types and severities of hearing loss, including individuals with mental disabilities, various forms and stages of dementia, mobility issues, and visual impairments. She always gives everyone her time, patience, and respect.

Being able to help the people in her community is a joy for her. She loves being a part of the hearing process and seeing individuals enjoy all that life has to offer. Jennifer has seen firsthand the effects of hearing loss as two of her relatives are completely deaf and her mother wears hearing aids.

Originally from the Central Valley, Jennifer and her family moved to the Central Coast to take over Hearing Solutions. She has been married for over 20 years and has 3 sons. In her free time, Jennifer enjoys spending time with her family, working in her yard, hiking, visiting the beach, and playing with their 150-pound Mastiff. She also spends her time cheering on her sons who swim competitively and play water polo.
