Expert Foot and Ankle Care for Northern Macomb County
Macomb Township, Clinton Township, Shelby Township, Harrison Township, and the surrounding northern Macomb County communities have access to board-certified podiatric care at Balance Foot & Ankle. Our Bloomfield Hills office is accessible from northern Macomb County via M-59 or I-75, providing the full range of foot and ankle services for this rapidly growing region.
Led by board-certified foot and ankle surgeon Dr. Thomas Bembynista, our practice offers comprehensive podiatric care — from routine nail care and diabetic foot management through complex reconstructive surgery — with same-week appointments for most new patients.
Serving Macomb Township’s Growing Community
Macomb Township and the surrounding communities represent some of the fastest-growing areas in Michigan, with a large young family population, growing senior demographics, and a diverse mix of occupational and recreational activity profiles. This creates demand for both family-oriented foot care — Sever’s disease in children, sports injuries in adolescents, general adult foot conditions — and senior care including diabetic foot management, fall prevention, and arthritic joint treatment.
Northern Macomb County’s outdoor recreation culture — access to Lake St. Clair, the Clinton River, and multiple parks and trail systems — generates a significant volume of athletic and recreational foot and ankle injuries that we manage with sport-specific expertise and return-to-activity planning.
Conditions We Treat for Northern Macomb County Patients
Plantar fasciitis, heel pain, Achilles tendon problems, bunions, hammertoes, ingrown toenails, nail fungus, and diabetic foot care are among the most frequent conditions we see from Macomb Township and Clinton Township patients. Sports injuries including ankle sprains, stress fractures, turf toe, and ankle instability are also routinely managed with comprehensive conservative and surgical options.
