Foot Doctor in Green Oak Township & South Lyon, MI — Podiatry Close to Home

Serving Green Oak Township & South Lyon

Green Oak Township and South Lyon sit at the intersection of Livingston and Oakland counties — and patients from this community have easy access to both of our Balance Foot & Ankle locations. Our Howell office serves the northern Green Oak Township and Livingston County side, while our Bloomfield Hills office serves patients closer to Oakland County. Both locations provide the same advanced care, the same team, the same technologies.

Why Patients from Green Oak & South Lyon Choose Balance Foot & Ankle

Green Oak Township and South Lyon patients choose us because we offer something most community podiatry practices don’t: a true multi-technology approach. MLS laser therapy, EPAT shockwave, 3D-printed orthotics, toenail fungus laser, and in-office imaging — all under one roof, with board-certified podiatrists experienced in both conservative and surgical management.

Getting to Our Offices

From South Lyon/Green Oak, our Howell office (4330 E Grand River Ave, Howell) is approximately 20 minutes northwest via US-23 or M-36. Our Bloomfield Hills office (43494 Woodward Ave, Suite 208) is approximately 25 minutes southeast on Pontiac Trail and then south on Woodward. Either office is conveniently accessible.

Conditions Treated

We treat the complete spectrum of foot and ankle conditions for Green Oak Township and South Lyon patients: heel pain, bunions, hammertoes, ingrown toenails, toenail fungus, diabetic foot care, ankle injuries, sports-related foot problems, custom orthotics, neuropathy, and more. Same-day appointments are available for urgent concerns.

Two Offices, One Call

Call Balance Foot & Ankle at (810) 206-1402 and we’ll help you choose the most convenient office location — Howell or Bloomfield Hills. We welcome new patients from Green Oak Township, South Lyon, Brighton, Lyon Township, and surrounding communities.

Foot Doctor in Green Oak and South Lyon, MI: Podiatric Care for Southern Livingston County

Green Oak Township and South Lyon residents in southern Livingston County have two convenient options for professional podiatric care at Balance Foot & Ankle: our Howell office at 4330 E Grand River (approximately 25–30 minutes north via US-23 or I-96) and our Bloomfield Hills office at 43494 Woodward Ave #208 (approximately 20–25 minutes east via 8 Mile Road or Grand River). The choice depends on individual preference and traffic patterns — both offices provide the same clinical services, accept the same insurance plans, and operate with the same scheduling flexibility. South Lyon residents near the Wixom and Commerce Township border often find the Bloomfield Hills location more convenient for their commute patterns.

Green Oak and South Lyon patients benefit from Balance Foot & Ankle‘s comprehensive service range — from routine nail care and diabetic foot examinations to custom 3D orthotics, MLS laser therapy, shockwave treatment for plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinopathy, and surgical correction of bunions, hammertoes, and ankle instability. South Lyon’s active community of runners, cyclists, golfers, and recreational athletes generates significant demand for sports podiatry services — and our evidence-based approach to sports foot injury management is well-aligned with the performance goals of this patient population. All major Michigan insurance plans are accepted at both locations. South Lyon and Green Oak residents can call Balance Foot & Ankle at (810) 206-1402 to schedule at whichever location is most convenient.
