About Us

Linda L. Kiser,
M.A. CCC-A
Clinical Audiologist, Owner

Linda earned her B.S. from the University of Wyoming and her M.A. from the University of North Colorado. She is certified by the American Speech Language Hearing Association and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Audiology. She has experience in hospital settings, private practice, and in ear-nose-throat (ENT) clinics.

Linda began her career in 1991 working in a private practice at Lutheran Medical Center. While there, she worked with infants to geriatrics and ran the newborn testing program, neurodiagnostic lab and hearing aid clinic. She then went on to help start a private practice clinic and eventually worked as the lead audiologist at Swedish Medical Center.

It was there that she realized that working with patients in a smaller clinic would allow for better relationships and less "corporate" issues. In addition, she wanted to return to the community where she first started as an Audiologist, and it was from there that Mountain Peak Hearing Associates, Inc. was born.

Linda resides in Jefferson County, Colorado, with her husband of 14 years, Wayne, and two young children, Christopher and Karissa. She feels it is an honor to be their mom.

Working hard for better hearing.
Linda doesn't just understand the way your ears work. She understands your overall situation - your coming to terms with a new hearing aid. Most clinics adhere to a Colorado State-mandated 30-day grace period for you to "get used to" a new hearing aid. At Mountain Peak Hearing, we double this period to 60 DAYS! Linda wants to make sure you are happy and that she has actually had a positive effect on your quality of life.

And we're not going to try to sell you more than you need. It would be easy to follow in the footsteps of lesser clinics and get you to buy equipment that is technological over-kill or is their supplier's inventory special of the month. We dispense only the best quality products, and have excellent relationships with our suppliers - relationships that are absolutely vital for unusual or extraordinary circumstances.

Insurance Accepted.
We work with: Medicare, Anthem/Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Pacificare/Secure Horizons, Sloans Lake/MMA, and United Healthcare. And if we are not on a particular insurance company's "preferred provider list" we will work directly with patients on pricing.

Kristin L. Rankin M.A. CCC-A
Clinical Audiologist

Kristin has worked as a hearing specialist with a wide variety of people for 25 years. She has both a Bachelors and a Masters Degree in Audiology and Hearing Sciences from the University of Northern Colorado. She is currently a Member of the American Speech Language Hearing Association (AHSA), a Fellow of the American Academy of Audiology, and a Charter Member and Fellow of the Colorado Academy of Audiology. Kristin has worked in ear-nose-throat (ENT) Clinics, hospital settings, private practice & university settings.

Kristin began her career in 1983 working in a medical clinic with physicians who specialize in head and neck surgery. She enjoyed working with infants to geriatric populations in all areas of hearing loss, and also performed balance function testing and rehabilitation. Kristin was lead audiologist as well as office manager for the practice. To expand her own education and to share her expertise with others, she has taught Audiology at the community college level and has participated in several international medical missions.

In 2006, Kristin began working at Mountain Peak Hearing Associates, Inc. She wanted to leave a medical clinic setting to seek an association with other audiologists in order to specialize in treating hearing problems in a more personal, comfortable setting where audiology is the sole focus and the priority for patients. Through her collaboration with Linda Kiser and Loretta Schreffler, she has found a flourishing and gratifying practice.

Kristin and Tom, her husband of 25 years reside in Wheat Ridge, within walking distance of our office. She has two grown daughters, Emilee and Hana, her son-in-law Caleb, and the recent happy addition of a grandson, Caden.
