I like HouseMD, and many of the cases are pretty real, of course with its own proportion of drama, no one can surely know how long it will take to an infection create an organic failure. Yeah, House rules!! but he doesn't know how to use an sthetoscope in its right position!!!!

No no, I get the point you were trying to make. I was merely pointing out a minor error. If nothing else, consider it something I did for my own entertainment.

I like the show but ... ( 1 month ago by madmikeF)

I like the show but I think it´s a little monotonous like the same thing happends. In the beginning of a episode they show when the patient get sick. They take in the patient. The patient is bad, then gets worse and throw up blood. They investigate what is wrong with the patient and how they are going to treat it. Then the patient gets better. That´s how it is in almost all episodes

I LOVE House! It's amazing how much of the story is true! It's awesome! It's really cool that they actually looked for crazy cases like that that are true... way to go, House writers!

i love how the person who reported on this was names jamie wilson....its like it was planned

Well the formula ... ( 3 weeks ago by grafight)

Well the formula works. It's like a detective show with diseases instead of criminals. It makes for fun TV. And of course it's impossible to see all those rare cases in one hospital, just like it's impossible that Leutenant Columbo got all the "impossible" murder cases, but it's fun to watch. I've even tried to guess the solution (It's often one of the first diagnosis). And of course the humor, drama and Hugh Laurie's acting add to the package. One of the best TV shows ever!

This guy is wasting his time, if u read about the creation of house, medical students and professors write the cases for the show while the show writers create the drama

Why would house go to jail in real life?

In addition to his brush with the law over Vicodin abuse, in some episodes House has physically assaulted patients... and performed medical tests and procedures without the patient's consent, which can be a form of assault. Also, he failed to report child abuse by the father of a patient, falsified billing records, and so on and so on.

Honestly, who cares ... ( 1 week ago by yourmother3232)

Honestly, who cares if it's 100% real or not? It's just entertainment. People want to be entertained when they watch T.V. they don't sit there and worry if it's fake or not.

Who cares if it's ... ( 1 week ago by danni13371)

Who cares if it's unrealistic to happen in the same hospital? If the cases are actually non-fictional (real), then it's just a bonus for the viewers. It has almost inspired me to become a doctor (I'm 15), but I prefer astronomy.

it should be real ... ( 1 week ago by ud752)

it should be real though because it makes the show that much more interesting

Well, the ... ( 4 days ago by NullShade)

Well, the conglomeration of cases isn't that strange: part of the premise is that people go to House (from all over the world) when no other doctor can diagnose their problem. If you google "Polite Dissent House", you'll get a blog from a doctor whose pastime is analyzing these episodes. Apparently, the medicine is sometimes quite good, and often better than usual for medical shows, but there are some oddities. (Perhaps there are explanations that the author of that blog isn't aware of.)
