Omar Epps plays Eric Foreman, a member of Gregory House’s diagnostic team in House M.D.
Foreman is a neurologist whose analytical ability and professional ambition make him one of the team’s strongest doctors. He often challenges House’s methods while also learning from House’s unconventional diagnostic reasoning.
Epps was part of the original core cast and remained an important character through the series. Foreman’s career develops beyond the initial fellowship, and his relationship with House changes as he gains authority and responsibility within the hospital.
The character is easy to confuse with other members of House’s team. Jesse Spencer played Robert Chase, Jennifer Morrison played Allison Cameron, and Peter Jacobson played Chris Taub. Omar Epps is the actor associated with Eric Foreman.
