False Impressions

Two trash bags are found in a swamp containing the dismembered body of a missing 27-year-old man. The man was last seen when he left his home to collect a debt from an acquaintance. The acquaintance becomes the prime suspect, and confesses the crime to his cellmate, but denies the crime to the police. It's up to Dr. G to uncover the truth.

    I really like Dr. G she get the point of thing, and she knows her job well. She also points out of how a person life is by telling us if he or she had a hard life, and what they could of done, to have a longer life. With Dr. G., she could save alot of people, by telling us about others peoples, health, so we can get a reality check, and get ourselves to the Doctor. I Heard that Dr. G is going to do a Full Examination and Autopsy on Caylee, can anyone let me know if thats true or not. My Husband said Yes its true.

    I love Dr. G, i watch her show whenever i can. I do wish the was a way to watch the show uncensored and that you can see the actual procedures. Dr. Michael Baden does live and uncensored atopsies on HBO and I would love to see Dr. G do them as well maybe hide « show »

    I love Dr. G, i watch her show whenever i can. I do wish there was a way to watch the show uncensored and that you can see the actual procedures with blurs over the bodies or organs. Dr. Michael Baden does live and uncensored autopsies on HBO and I would love to see Dr. G do them as well maybe one day. I've always wanted to become an Embalmer and learn about death and the human body. If anyone is interested in these topics too try reading the book "Stiff" it's a wonderful look into the human body after life.

    I absolutely love her style, her manners and her compassion. I wish my own doctors that treat me (other than my Primary Care Physician) were as nice as she is. You can't fake that; it's really her personality. hide « show »

    Dr. G, I wish you were around here, not just to work, but to teach the doctors some good bedside manners!

    I like the fact that she calls up the families to let them know exactly what happened to their family member and consoles them. She takes the time out of her very busy schedule to do that...not too many doctors do that anymore.

    Personally, I couldn't do what she does or her co-workers do, but I guess after awhile they get used to it. I think the hardest part for her would be working on little children. Thank you, Doctor.

    Quite an amazing woman and a very informative show. hide « show »

    Dr. G is amazing. She does a job most people could not and is compassionate about what she does. She really cares about the families of the people. She wants to give them an answer. I am from San Antonio and did not realize she used to work there until I watched an episode from there tonight. The Live Oak P.D. responded to the call of the kid who died in his sleep and I lived in Live Oak for 7 years. If I ever have to have an autopsy, I would want Dr. G to do it. Hopefully, no time soon.
