Dr. Michael Hunter is Certified by the American Board of Pathology in Anatomic, Clinical, and Forensic Pathology; and currently practices as a Medical Examiner (Forensic Pathologist) in Panama City Florida.
 
I would like to introduce myself and explain a little about what I do for a living. As an active medical examiner and board certified forensic pathologist I am routinely involved in the investigation of suspicious deaths. I work closely with law enforcement agencies and other forensic specialists to obtaine relevant information, examine deceased individuals, recognize and maintain evidence; and establish factual aspects of a death in order to come to a medical opinion as to what happened to that person.
 
A central activity of a forensic pathologist is the performance of autopsies and establish the detailed documentation of the postmortem findings. It is by this documentation that we can assist the families, those in the legal profession, or other interested parties in obtaining a clear and impartial set of facts from which a medical opinion as to cause and manner of death can be reached.
 
An additional part of my practice is educating others about what a medical examiner does and explaining some of the real limitations that we confromnt in forensic science and specifically forensic pathology.
