Materials and method: Questionnaire based retrospective clinical study Results: In the previous year forty-six percent visited the general practice (GP) for neck pain. These patients , 28% did not receive a diagnostic modality, 36% did not receive therapy and 36% were not referred. The most diagnostic and therapeutic modalities were physical examination (54%) and pain medication (64%), respectively. The GPs most frequently referred to a physiotheraphy and rehabilitation (52%). Conclusion: Administration to hospital to chronic neck pain is % 46. This percentage is a minor group among chronic neck pain. Fifty-four percent of these patients can be diagnosed, if appropriate evaluations are made.
