An M.E (medical examiner) performs autopsies and then sends any evidence or DNA to forensic scientist who examine it.

The medical doctors that specialize in that kind of thing are pathologists. Generally, if you die and an autopsy is done by the hospital it will be a pathologist doing it.
As the above poster points out if there is a suspicion of a crime the medical examiner may do a complete or partial autopsy. Medical examiners are government employees who are usually pathologists by training but may be medical professionals with other credentials. In some places the medical examiner may not even be a doctor (although we are seeing less and less of that).
