What is the surname of House M.D.’s doctor Eric Foreman?

The surname of House M.D.’s doctor Eric is Foreman.

Dr. Eric Foreman is a neurologist and one of the original members of Gregory House’s diagnostic team. Omar Epps played the character throughout the series. Foreman begins as a fellow selected by House and gradually develops into an independent physician and leader within Princeton-Plainsboro.

Foreman’s career becomes one of the show’s major professional arcs. He struggles with House’s methods, gains experience in neurology, and eventually assumes greater administrative responsibility. His relationship with House is marked by both respect and resistance, since Foreman understands the value of House’s reasoning but does not always accept his behavior.

The name is occasionally misspelled “Forman,” especially because the pronunciation is straightforward and the character is often referred to by his first name. The canonical spelling is “Foreman,” and it is unrelated to the surname of Eric Forman from That ’70s Show.
