Which doctors practice at the Bloomfield Hills location?
Dr. Tom Biernacki (DPM, FACFAS), Dr. Carl Jay (DPM, fellowship-trained), and Dr. Daria Gutkin (DPM) all see patients at our Bloomfield Hills office at 43494 Woodward Ave #208.
Does Dr. Tom’s YouTube channel cover conditions treated in Bloomfield Hills?
Yes. Dr. Biernacki’s YouTube channel with 950,000 subscribers covers nearly every condition we treat — heel pain, bunions, ingrown nails, fungal nails, ankle sprains, diabetic foot care, and more. His transparent, educational approach has earned the trust of over 150 million viewers.
What’s the average cost to see a podiatrist?
For most patients with insurance, it’s simply your plan’s specialist copay — commonly around $20–$50, depending on your coverage. We accept Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna, Medicare, Priority Health, HAP, Humana, McLaren, and Meridian, and we verify your benefits before your first visit so there are no surprises. Without insurance, call (810) 206-1402 for transparent self-pay pricing.
What is the difference between a foot doctor and a podiatrist?
They’re the same thing. “Foot doctor” is the everyday term for a podiatrist (DPM — Doctor of Podiatric Medicine), a physician who specializes in the foot, ankle, and lower leg. Our Bloomfield Hills foot doctors are board-certified podiatrists who handle everything from ingrown toenails and heel pain to reconstructive foot and ankle surgery.
What is the most common problem treated by podiatrists?
Heel pain — most often plantar fasciitis — is one of the most common reasons patients visit our Bloomfield Hills office, along with bunions, ingrown toenails, toenail fungus, diabetic foot care, and ankle sprains. We diagnose the cause in one visit and build a plan that treats it, not just the symptoms.
Can a podiatrist remove a corn on your foot?
Yes. Corn and callus removal is a quick, painless in-office procedure at our Bloomfield Hills office. We safely trim the thickened skin, address the pressure point causing it — often with padding or footwear changes — and check for underlying issues like hammertoe. Never shave a corn at home if you have diabetes or poor circulation. Corn and callus care is also included in our medical pedicure.
Can a podiatrist treat athlete’s foot?
Yes. Athlete’s foot (tinea pedis) is one of the most common infections we treat at our Bloomfield Hills office. We first confirm it really is fungus — itchy, peeling skin between the toes has several look-alikes — then prescribe treatment strong enough to clear it and keep it from spreading to the toenails. Learn more about athlete’s foot treatment at Balance Foot & Ankle.
Where can seniors go to get their toenails cut in Bloomfield Hills?
Our podiatrists provide professional toenail trimming for seniors at our Bloomfield Hills office — the safe option when thick nails, reaching, eyesight, diabetes, or blood thinners make home trimming risky. Visits are quick and gentle, and Medicare often covers routine nail care when a qualifying medical condition is present. Many seniors pair it with a medical pedicure for complete foot care.
Can a podiatrist help with neuropathy?
Yes. Our podiatrists test for and treat peripheral neuropathy — the numbness, burning, or tingling often linked to diabetes — and early care helps protect against ulcers and other complications. Learn more about our neuropathy treatment in Bloomfield Hills.

Pediatric Podiatry for Kids & Teens
We see children from across Oakland County for flat feet, in-toeing and walking concerns, ingrown toenails, plantar warts, and sports-related heel pain such as Sever’s disease. Our approach with kids is gentle and conservative first — most pediatric foot problems improve without surgery, and we take the time to explain what’s normal growth versus what needs treatment. Learn more about our pediatric podiatry care. Learn more about pediatric podiatry at our Bloomfield Hills office.
Sports Podiatry for Active Feet
Runners and athletes come in for ankle sprains, stress fractures, plantar fasciitis, Achilles pain, and turf toe. We build return-to-activity plans rather than just telling you to rest, and when mechanics are the root cause we can fit custom orthotics on site.
Foot & Ankle Surgeons When You Need One
If a bunion, hammertoe, or injury does need surgical correction, you’re already in the right place — Dr. Biernacki is a fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (FACFAS). We recommend surgery only after conservative care has had a fair chance, and we’re happy to give second opinions on procedures recommended elsewhere.
