Meet Jennifer Alford

“Balance disorders are among the most common reasons people seek medical treatment. I am privileged to work among a group of talented medical providers, including otolaryngologists, neurologists, physician assistants, physical therapists, and my peer audiologists who are dedicated to the treatment of patients experiencing dizziness,” Dr. Alford says.

“At UT Southwestern we are focused as a team to provide the best outcomes for our patients. As an audiologist, the diagnostic vestibular testing I provide can validate the symptoms a patient is experiencing and provide insight to the cause of dizziness, which for some patients can be a major disruption to daily life. It’s rewarding to help a patient get back on track to enjoy daily life activities without the fear of dizziness.”
