Michigan patients dealing with foot and ankle problems benefit from evaluation by a board-certified podiatrist who can provide an accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatment plan — rather than relying on symptom management alone. At Balance Foot & Ankle, we combine clinical examination, advanced imaging when indicated, and a comprehensive understanding of foot biomechanics to identify the underlying cause of the patient’s symptoms and design a treatment plan that addresses it. Our podiatrists are fellowship-trained in foot and ankle surgery and provide the full spectrum of care — from conservative treatment and custom orthotics to minimally invasive and reconstructive surgery. Michigan patients can call Balance Foot & Ankle at (810) 206-1402 for same-week appointments at our Howell (4330 E Grand River) and Bloomfield Hills (43494 Woodward Ave #208) locations.
