In House, M.D., what hospital employs Dr. Gregory House?

Dr. Gregory House works at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital in House, M.D.

Princeton-Plainsboro is a fictional teaching hospital in New Jersey and serves as the principal setting for most of the series. House heads its Department of Diagnostic Medicine, where he and his team investigate unusual cases that other doctors have been unable to solve.

The hospital’s name combines Princeton and Plainsboro, reflecting the fictional location used by the show. Although the institution is invented, many scenes were filmed at the real campus of Princeton University, whose exterior architecture became strongly associated with the series.

A frequent mix-up is naming Princeton University as House’s workplace. The university supplied recognizable filming locations, but it is not the hospital. Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital is the in-story medical institution.
