I have not had a skin punch biopsy done before. My Mayo neurologist diagnosed me with idiopathic small fiber peripheral neuropathy using an EMG and a few other tests along with a physical exam. I am not sure if a podiatrist can do a skin punch biopsy. Hopefully someone with experience can answer the question.

John - My podiatrist is a foot surgeon and he offered to do a skin punch biopsy which I turned down due to my conclusive diagnosis at Mayo. When I reminded him, I flew to MN, he said OK, never mind.
