Interview w/ Dr. Wolfe, Forensic Pathologist

[@iota4612]

"you have to tell the story that they couldn't tell" - wonderful interview, thank you.

[@shh2086]

you're literally a life saver, I rarely see videos about studying pathology so thank you sooo much!

[@brendaechols5929]

It takes special people to do this job. It's rare to interview a person that does this job, so this is interesting. Forensic pathologist are smart, genuine , and have lots of empathy.

[@ooo00eve00ooo]

I really like the life advice at the end. I agree that it's one of the best ways to learn and become curious and a better person in the long run.

I was a phlebotomist for 25 years. Always loved when I had to go to Pathology.

[@jazargoalq785]

I watched Dexter to much as a kid and now I’m too deep into my degree to do anything else. Hope I enjoy this.

Hi Dr Wolfe I have been listening to your podcast and it is very informative, I am a nurse student , and I love your content. I was listening to the third part of the Halloween series and I remember the show faces of the dead . Now I want to ask you to make a couple of chapters of the mechanism of dead. I ask myself the question of why we are scared , is it because religion matters or is it because it is painful? Talk about what would be considered for you the most painful dead before you lose consciousness and die. Which one to avoid .

[@kay_bear1731]

Next year , I start school, starting with biochemistry with a focus in forensic science

[@carmenkisel5059]

What was the most shocking outcome/twist you witnessed while working?

[@sanitorz232]

You mentioned a lot of sensory problems. Do you think someone with Asperger’s syndrome could make it and enjoy the profession?

[@caitlin4132]

If you decided to retire and switch to teaching, you would be amazing! Your speaking voice and ability to keep the audience interested is really good!

[@knifeafterdeath.drwolfe]

That’s my hope! I’m going to teach more on here starting in mid June.

[@lisanewcomer9228]

Very informative

[@ciceroshorty2576]

Having dealt with hundreds of dead bodies, have you formed an opinion as to whether our consciousness continues to exist after death, independently of the brain, or not? I am sure you will have an opinion on that regard. Thanks in advance.

[@carmenkisel5059]

Did you ever refuse to take on a case because you had some sort of connection to the dead person or the case? Or at least you felt like it?

[@y.m.505]

I have seen graduate programs in Forensics / Forensic Science; how does it relate to and differ from Forensic pathology?

[@knifeafterdeath.drwolfe]

Usually it’s focused on a basic science element of forensic realm, of which there are dozens of subspecialties…whereas forensic pathology focuses very much on medicine, autopsy and certifying cause and manner of death. Other areas of forensics don’t deal with that as a direct objective

[@Rofhiwa388]

Hello is it possible to persue in honors in forensic pathology after doing BSc in biology and biochemistry

[@knifeafterdeath.drwolfe]

That’s not really terminology used in America so I don’t know. The only degree obtainable in forensic pathology is after obtaining a medical degree and a pathology residency

[@robynoreilly7442]

If you want to be an assistant what education do you have to have

[@lilacbeauty22]

If someone wanted to email you about questions regarding the death of a loved one is this possible? If so, what is your email?

[@twix3799]

You must be super Duper rich

[@Marthab209]

Isn’t the report suppose to be voice recorded?

[@Marthab209]

@@knifeafterdeath.drwolfe when I did my intern with the sheriffs office in my county I saw the doctor always dictate something I never got a chance to ask. Also, I just saw your video of the silent brain cut which is awesome. In my experience the doc would only weight the organs and cut a small piece of each organ and preserve it, I was curious is that examination when there’s no clear cause of death?

[@renee8720]

do you ever answer people about a medical condition that they may have?

[@knifeafterdeath.drwolfe]

When I have time, I try to.

[@lulumink0]

Great interview, just curious to watch, but no thanks, this is the last thing that I'd consider as a job. can't handle the sensory part and gruesome side of the work.

[@saffcarmen02]

Hi Dr Wolfe, thank you so much for this video I really appreciate your time! I am currently a first year forensic student and I wish to pursue this career pathway. I just have a few questions that are required for my assignment if you don't mind me asking, thank you so much! :)

Hmmmm...us that an open drawer of a morgue refrigerator behind you??????
