Podiatric Care for Brownstown Township and Huron Township

Medically Reviewed by Dr. Tom Biernacki, DPM — Board-Certified Podiatrist, Balance Foot & Ankle Specialists, Michigan. Last updated April 2026.

Residents of Brownstown Township and Huron Township in southern Wayne County have access to expert foot and ankle care through Balance Foot & Ankle. Our board-certified podiatrists provide comprehensive treatment for all foot and ankle conditions — from routine nail and skin care to complex reconstructive surgery — with appointment availability for new patients.

These growing communities in southern Wayne County attract active families, outdoor enthusiasts, and professionals who demand pain-free movement for their busy lives. When foot or ankle problems develop, prompt specialist evaluation prevents minor issues from becoming major limitations.

Our Podiatric Services

Heel Pain and Plantar Fasciitis Treatment

Plantar fasciitis — the most common cause of heel pain — responds best to early, targeted treatment. We provide custom orthotic therapy, corticosteroid injection, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, and minimally invasive plantar fascia release for patients at every stage of the condition. Most patients achieve significant pain relief within four to eight weeks of beginning treatment.

Bunion and Hammertoe Correction

Bunions and hammertoes are progressive deformities that worsen without intervention. Our surgeons offer both traditional open and modern minimally invasive correction, with recovery protocols tailored to your lifestyle and activity goals. Many patients return to comfortable regular footwear within six to eight weeks of surgery.

Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetes is the leading cause of lower extremity amputation in Michigan. Comprehensive podiatric monitoring — including annual diabetic foot exams, professional nail and callus care, and therapeutic footwear prescription — dramatically reduces amputation risk. We accept Medicare and Medicaid and serve diabetic patients throughout Brownstown Township, Huron Township, and surrounding communities.

Sports Medicine and Ankle Injuries

Ankle sprains, stress fractures, Achilles tendon problems, and overuse injuries sideline athletes and active adults. We provide rapid evaluation, appropriate imaging, and evidence-based treatment for acute and chronic foot and ankle sports injuries. Physical therapy referral and return-to-activity planning are standard components of our injury care.

Pediatric Foot Care

Children develop foot problems too — flat feet, heel pain from Sever disease, ingrown toenails, and warts are among the most common pediatric presentations. We provide age-appropriate evaluation and treatment for children, with conservative management preferred whenever effective. We welcome patients from infants through adolescents for pediatric foot care throughout southern Wayne County.

Nerve Pain and Neuropathy

Burning, numbness, and electric shock sensations in the foot and ankle signal nerve involvement that warrants evaluation. Peripheral neuropathy, Morton neuroma, and tarsal tunnel syndrome all respond to targeted treatment when identified early. We provide neurological assessment, diagnostic ultrasound, and a full range of nerve treatment options from conservative care to decompression surgery.

Convenient Access from Brownstown and Huron Townships
