Thank you.  Yes,  that was my concern,  I did not want to go to a family doctor just to get a referral for a dermatologist.  Urgent care gave me a prescription for antibiotics and told me to come back to drain it if that didn't work.

Urgent care may or may not be able  (or willing) to i&d. 

Best bet is to find a dermatologist, but you may have trouble gettin in

I have a quarter sized red cyst on my neck.  I have no family doctor and would like to get this thing cut open and drained.  Should I go to urgent care?  I think I could wait a few days and find a family doctor. But they will just refer me elsewhere.  Will urgent care be able to cut it today?

Painful cyst behind ear on neck. Where should I go?
