In House M.D., which hospital employs Dr. House for most of the series?

In House M.D., Dr. House works at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital for most of the series.

Princeton-Plainsboro is the fictional New Jersey teaching hospital where the show’s diagnostic cases are usually set. House heads its Department of Diagnostic Medicine, a small specialist unit that investigates patients whose symptoms have not been explained by conventional diagnosis. The hospital also contains the offices and departments used for the show’s broader medical and personal storylines.

The name is fictional, but the series uses recognizable features of a major teaching hospital, including fellows, attending physicians, a hospital administrator, and specialist departments. Viewers sometimes confuse it with real hospitals from other medical dramas, such as Seattle Grace from Grey’s Anatomy or Sacred Heart from Scrubs.
