What is the name of House’s diagnostic department in the TV series House, M.D.?

House’s department in the TV series House, M.D. is called Diagnostic Medicine.

The department specializes in solving difficult or unexplained cases that other doctors have been unable to diagnose. Gregory House leads the unit at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, working with a rotating group of fellows and doctors who perform tests, challenge hypotheses and investigate rare diseases.

Diagnostic medicine is a real area of medical practice, although the show dramatizes it through unusually complex cases and rapid diagnostic breakthroughs. In ordinary hospitals, diagnosis is shared across specialties rather than always being concentrated in one small team led by a single physician.

The department’s membership changes over the series. The original team includes Robert Chase, Allison Cameron and Eric Foreman, while later seasons feature doctors such as Remy Hadley, Chris Taub and Lawrence Kutner. Their differing specialties and personalities drive many of the show’s case-solving debates.
