Eric Foreman was House's original fellow specializing in neurology in House M.D.
Omar Epps played Foreman, one of the three doctors on House's original diagnostic team. Foreman's neurological training contributes to the team's analysis of seizures, movement disorders, brain injuries, and other nervous-system problems.
Foreman is often presented as ambitious, disciplined, and more willing than some colleagues to challenge House directly. His professional relationship with House changes as he gains experience and takes on leadership responsibilities within the hospital.
The original team also included Robert Chase and Allison Cameron, whose specialties and personalities differed from Foreman's. Later teams included doctors such as Chris Taub, Lawrence Kutner, and Remy Hadley, so the term “original fellow” identifies the first trio rather than every doctor who later worked with House.
