In House M.D., what hospital employs Gregory House as its leading diagnostician?

In House M.D., Gregory House works at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital as the head of its Diagnostic Medicine department.

The hospital is fictional and is located in Princeton, New Jersey, in the show’s story. House and his rotating diagnostic team investigate unusual cases there, often consulting specialists from other departments.

Princeton-Plainsboro is sometimes confused with a real New Jersey medical center. It was created for the series, although the show used Princeton University’s Frist Campus Center for exterior shots. The fictional hospital’s teaching-hospital setting supports the series’ emphasis on research, specialist consultation, and resident training.

The hospital remains central throughout the series, including after House’s department changes personnel and leadership. It also provides the workplace for characters such as Lisa Cuddy, James Wilson, and many members of House’s teams.
