Neck lumps can cause significant patient anxiety and benefit from a multidisciplinary diagnostic approach, with an ultrasound scan and fine needle aspirate. Internationally, ‘one‐stop’ clinics are used for the evaluation of neck lumps, to date no such clinic has been established in the New Zealand public hospital system.
