ABC News "An eagle-eyed surgeon and social media are being credited with helping to save a woman's life after the doctor took action online when he spotted a lump on the stranger's neck when she appeared on an HGTV show.
"Dr. Erich Voigt, a New York-based ear, nose and throat surgeon from NYU Langone Health, just happened to be watching "Beachfront Bargain Hunt" when he noticed a small lump on the neck of a woman featured in the program. It was something only a trained doctor would recognize as needing attention, he said." . . . Video
