In House M.D., what specialty does Dr. Eric Foreman practice?

In House M.D., Dr. Eric Foreman practices neurology.

Foreman is a neurologist and one of the doctors selected for House’s original diagnostic team. His specialty is particularly relevant to cases involving the brain, nerves, seizures, altered behavior, and unexplained movement or sensory problems. He also contributes general diagnostic reasoning rather than handling only neurological cases.

Foreman’s specialty can be confused with those of other recurring doctors. James Wilson is an oncologist, Robert Chase is an intensivist and later surgeon, and Allison Cameron is an immunologist. These fields overlap during complex cases, but Foreman’s canonical specialty is neurology.

Over the series, Foreman develops from a junior team member into a leader and hospital administrator. His career progression does not change the specialty that defines his original professional identity.
