Gregory House

Character: withdrawn, harsh and cynical, prone to rebellion. He does not burden himself with observing the rules of good manners and at times it seems that he is completely devoid of a sense of compassion (which, however, is incorrect). House is a misanthrope, his favorite statement is "everyone lies." He cannot stand pressure and obedience to the rules, but his "rebelliousness" does not extend beyond rudeness towards patients and colleagues. At the same time, House knows how to be serious, sacrifices himself when necessary, and is exceptionally faithful (especially to his principles and sense of justice). He is also an excellent specialist who is willing to take risks and take responsibility when he undertakes to treat difficult cases. Appearance: men in their forties or early fifties with short curly brown, graying hair. At the beginning of the sixth season, House cuts his hair very short, but by the end of the season it returns to its previous length. During his time in prison at the beginning of the eighth season, House's hair grew out, and he eventually shaved it off at the beginning of the eighth season of the TV series Charity Case. House wears a variety of blazers, trousers and sneakers, often wearing either a button-down shirt with a T-shirt visible underneath, or a button-down shirt with the top two buttons unbuttoned, exposing the upper chest and collarbones, along with jeans and sneakers. Biography: Gregory House was born into the family of military pilot John House. As a child, he moved many times with his parents and spent several years in Egypt, Japan, and the Philippines. At the age of 12, House realized that John House was not his biological father. He suspected that his father was a family friend, Thomas Bell, whom his mother, Blythe House, married some time after John's death. However, in the fifth season, after conducting a DNA analysis, House learned that Thomas was not his father, the name of his real father remained unknown. After high school, House enrolled at Johns Hopkins University, where he was going to study physics, but then moved to the medical faculty, from where he was expelled. He continued his studies at the University of Michigan and eventually graduated as an infectious disease specialist and nephrologist. In the series, House holds the position of chief diagnostician at the Princeton-Placeborough Clinic in New Jersey. He has several young specialists under his command. House's team deals with the most difficult patients who could not be diagnosed by other doctors. House is distinguished by non-traditional methods of working with patients. He claims that "everyone is lying," and therefore listening to patients is pointless. Instead, House's team breaks into patients' homes to eliminate the environment as the source of the disease, and digs into their private lives, which many hide.
