I'm a 58-year old woman with no insurance in Arizona who needs to get a needle biopsy done. Where can I get this done both well and inexpensively? Thanks! Kate

Do you have any state insurance for people not covered otherwise? Can you qualify for medicaid? Medical procedures such as a biopsy is doubtful to be inexpensive, and you want it done properly. This is a common procedure most city or county hospitals should be able to do properly.
