I remember a medical friend rolling his eyes at the show when it was airing, because usually he could guess what the end diagnosis could be from the symptoms. House was just really good at making the drama about the doctor interject and extend the eyeball time into the hour long episode

Are you saying doctors don’t give patients treatments for unknown diseases to see if they’ll work?

Not the way House does!

It’s obvious you’ve never had to go through this because generally no, that does not happen often.

Well My doctors say “take this and we’ll see if it works” all the time.
