Magali, Angi was nicely going above and beyond to try to find you a place for an MRI/needle guided biopsy. However, if your doctor orders you to have a procedure, he HAS to tell you where to have it done; it's a pretty irrresponsible physician who orders a workup and leaves you high and dry to find someone to do it! Call Dr. Viera's office and ask for a recommendation, OK? Good luck - PJH

I'm not sure exactly where you're located (only been through Miami once) but when I typed in MRI Guided Biopsy & Miami Dade I found a place called Baptist Health in South FL / South Miami Hopsital that offers a wide variety of cancer services.  Hopefully they are within your area and you can go there.

Other than that I couldn't fund much actual info, so hopefully they offer the procedure you need.

Good lukc to you!
