THE CHARACTERS

Dr House: He is of course the hero of the series that has his name. This brilliant doctor is in fact specialized in infectious diseases and nephrology. Hismain characteristic is that he faced an infarct of aquadriceps, that forced him to walk with a cane, andabove all to wolf vicodin, a tablet, that helps him forget the pain, even if he has become a drug addict. He his voluntarily disagreeable with his patient, because he only sees in people a medical interest; and he often makes everything to obtain what he wants. Otherwise, he is keen on music and on motos.

 

James Wilson: He is doctor House’s best (and only) friend. He works in the same hospital as him, in the department of oncology. Wilson acts as a guardrail for House, as Cuddy. He usually accepts all House’s excesses, and gets the respect of his friend. His main characteristic is to act humanely.

 

 

Lisa Cuddy: She is the Chief Hospital Administrator of Princeton Plainsboro, House works for her. She’s always trying to reason with him, but is forced to allow that House is his best Doctor. On the other hand, House knows that she wants a child, and uses it to get his wishes.

 

 

 

Eric Foreman: He is a neurologist that works for House. He resigned at the end of the third season to become the head of diagnostic medicine at the New York Mercy Hospital. But he got fired and got back in House’s team.  He often wonders if he has become like House, because he fears to be heartless.

 

 

 

Allison Cameron: She is an immunologist who worked for House before she left, thinking her chief was inhuman. Cameron became a Department Head of the emergency room when she came back to Princeton Plainsboro.

 

 

 

Robert Chase: He is an intensive care medicine specialist and worked for House before he was fired by him, because the excellent doctor appraised that he couldn’t learn any more from him. In fact, Chase was the first who decided to work for House (one year before the three others). He then became a Senior Surgeon at Princeton Plainsboro.

 

 

 

Chris Taub: He is a former plastic surgeon and has been hired by House in his new team. Cuddy likes him because she thinks that he is able to cope with House.

 

 

 

 

Lawrence Kutner: He is a Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Medicine specialist, who is also part of House’s new team. He was hired because House appreciated his first refusal to leave, after he fired him.

 

 

 

Remy Hadley : She is an Internist and is called “thirteen”, because it was her number during the competition to get the job. Cuddy convinced House to hire her in order to get a woman in the team.
