Eric Foreman’s medical specialty is neurology in House M.D. Foreman is one of House’s original diagnostic fellows and contributes neurological expertise to the team’s difficult cases.
Omar Epps played Foreman throughout the series. The character is ambitious, scientifically rigorous, and often more cautious than House, although his work under House gradually influences his own leadership style.
Foreman’s specialty can be confused with the broader diagnostic role he performs at Princeton-Plainsboro. The fellows investigate many kinds of disease, but each brings a primary medical discipline to the team. Foreman’s is neurology, while Chase is a specialist in intensive care and Cameron is an immunologist.
Foreman later takes on senior administrative and leadership responsibilities. His career therefore extends beyond his early role as one of House’s fellows.
