Family doc: Usually you should establish care with a family physician or general internist. If it is a cyst, sometimes these can be treated on the spot, other times you may need to see a general surgeon; your primary care provider can help you set this up.

Start with your PCP: You can start with your primary care doctor, if he/she won't be able to do it him/herself than he/she will send you the right direction.
