One of the things I love about House is that it taught me to think outsidethe box. I'm a nurse and suggested to a a Dr. to run a PSA on a pt.....she said "But he's only 15". My reply, exactly, why does he have urinary inconsititancy at 15? Saved his life.
What is urinary “inconsititancy”? I don’t understand this diagnosis. I’m thinking this was a spell check gone wrong? Incontinence? Dysuria? Urinary retention? Frequency? Pyuria?(which would indicate an STD, can be suspected in a sexually active 15 y/o) Just curious about what the kid ended up with and what you caught with the PSA/free PSA. You are suggesting he had Prostate CA and y’all caught it with the PSA test. With a 15 year old, it would not be my first response either, but probably would have ordered just to r/o that pathway.
House absolutely HATED working clinic hours on this show. This is actually common, I’ve had doctors who have to work ER shifts to maintain their certifications to work in hospitals. So, part of his job is to do clinic rotations, and he did legit everything he could to get out of it. Being sued means he cannot take patients in the clinic until it’s cleared. He was loving every moment of this and knew from the start being sued meant no clinic hours and he also just enjoyed screwing with people. But yeah this was to escape clinic rotations for a bit lol.
@@epgamer1145 He’s the world’s leading diagnostician in the show, he only gets patients that other doctors fail to diagnose and so they can’t treat them, he has (over the life of the show) 3-6 of the best and brightest graduates from medical school and it’s like THE residency that everyone wants because he’s so brilliant. But he’s also incredibly miserable and he’s very very hooked on pain pills because his leg needed to be amputated at one point and he refused so now he’s just trapped in unending agony and can’t really walk. He requires a cane. No matter what he does, he never gets reprimanded very harshly, because the hospital admin doesn’t want to lose the prestige he brings to the hospital. They’re world renowned because of House. He’s crazy and rude and superhumanly brilliant. It makes the show fun to watch. It isn’t realistic. You can’t have a doctor practicing medicine while actively in the throes of a very bad pill add1ction. He even makes his residents break into patient’s homes to do recon because he thinks everyone is a liar. It’s just entertainment.
@@dantekyle1775 He did the most batsh1t crazy stuff on that show to get out of clinic rotations lol… He would page Cuddy for consults on things like common cold and rashes hoping she’d get so annoyed she’d stop making him do them… In one episode he started calling people by their medical concerns to prove he had no more patients so he could leave but really they were all there and just didn’t want to be like, “Weird Discharge? Yeah that’s me!” Lmao.., Ridiculous but entertaining fr…..
@@FenrirEX He instead took the "Hypocritic" Oath in this case. He repeatedly harmed people when experimenting on them, even though it's to find a cure/treatment.
Fun fact; people with entitlement behaviour will do things like this often, that’s why all hospital workers document everything. And when I mean everything I mean THE DOCUMENT EVERHTING
As a hospital worker...we document EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING. If the big shots in suits started telling us we needed to document when the patient sneezes or coughs, you can bet we're documenting every single sniffle and cleared throat!
Fun fact: the author of Sherlock Holmes was a medical student who was taught to observe the patient carefully to give medical diagnosis much like House, this is what inspired Sherlock Holmes
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was also a general practitioner for 10 years before becoming an ophthalmologist (which he viewed as a failed pursuit). He only ever stopped medicine and became a full time author after nearly dying of influenza.
He was inspired by his colleague Dr. Joseph Bell and the character of Holmes is based on him. In the show, Wilson gifts House a book written by Dr.Joseph Bell, a nice little reference to this detail.
@@ExhaustedScarfwhat surpised me is that comment leaver either forgot to mention it or hasn't seen the fact that house is based on holmes which seems unlikely.
As someone who has no idea how it works in America…what are those papers? I keep seeing people being handed “papers” in movies and it’s handed to that specific person, why? Why not a phone call? An email? Why can’t he give him his own papers?
@@heisafraidbecause (as far as I’ve heard) when the person is handed the papers in person, they can’t turn around and say they didn’t receive them. If it was any other way, the person could also say “I wasn’t informed”.
@@heisafraid legal notice of a lawsuit. You can't serve papers in your own case because you the plaintiff have a vested interest in the service being done incorrectly - if you throw the papers on someone's trash can and say "I served the papers by hand delivery to their address", you can get the court to issue a default judgement without the defendant actually being notified of the lawsuit, which would violate the defendant's due process rights. The court may allow methods other than delivery of papers depending on local laws, but the point is that it has to be done fairly to ensure that the defendant is fully aware that they're being sued and has the chance to respond.
John Funsten came to the clinic with an abcess on his knee. House worked out that he had originally had a small pus filled sac, but had decided to try to relieve the pressure with something like a nail file, which only made it worse. Funsten tried to deny it at first, then admitted it. House offered Funsten a Vicodin for the pain which Funsten happily accepted. House then looked at the patient file and realized that Funsten lived 70 miles away from Princeton. When Funsten didn't have a reason for being in Princeton, House surmised, correctly, that he wasn't allowed to go to any closer hospital, probably because he was in litigation with them. Funsten denied it, or that he wanted to sue House, but House started asking him inappropriate questions because that would help a malpractice case. Thinking House will also refuse to treat him, House tells him to stay put and that he will drain the pus and run lab tests to make sure it isn't anything serious. House is dead on - Funsten returns almost immediately to serve a malpractice suit and House isn't surprised. He's also ready for him. He tells Funsten that he has gonorrhea and that House is duty bound to tell the state's medical officer of health. They will tell his wife so she can get tested. House says he would run another test, but he's not going to. He tells Funsten that since they're in litigation, he can't give him the test results, but it should be easy to prove he's clean - he just has to find another doctor to run another test.
@@jasonmurdoc9533 they leave it open ended with this little “check mate” moment but I could speculate if it helps you close the chapter in your head: he doesn’t have gonorrhea but since John is an asshole, house wants to humiliate him so says since they’re in litigation he will report that John has it to the state and they’ll call his wife to let her know she’s been exposed. Whether he could have it or not, his wife would theoretically not believe him saying it’s a false positive if she’s told by the state and his chances of getting another doctor SOMEWHERE to retest and confirm he doesn’t have it are slim bc he’s sued so many that no one will treat him. So he would have to consider dropping the litigation or call Houses bluff on the test results and hope he can find someone else to retest him so he can get the quick money he wants at the potential cost of his marriage
@@jasonmurdoc9533 Gonorrhea is an STD. I would assume that it's true that he does have it (you don't need a second test for that.) His wife is not necessarily complicit in his scams, but probably is. The point is, the woman from whom he contracted gonorrhea is most likely NOT his wife.
House literally told the dude what he was tryna accomplish here and he STILL went ahead and did it anyway. Calling him stupid is a disrespect to stupid people at this point 🤣🤣
Also technically even though it's a show, The guy is not legally allowed to serve the papers for court himself he has to have someone else do it it's illegal to serve your own papers.
A lot of times these type of people try to keep the smallest paper trail possible so even though they are willing to sue they first approach with an intent to sue to try and get a quick settlement out of court and without court records. Basically give me money and I will sign that I won't sue you
Depends, I've served my own papers every time I didn't send it registered mail and haven't broken any laws. In my jurisdiction only family law stuff can't be served personally, civil is free game.
I think in most states it's an optional service for a fee to have the sheriff's office serve papers otherwise you do so yourself or have a process server do it.
I just thought ppl would wanna watch the whole episode rather than just a 30 second video....I know I would and it's frustrating not knowing the season or episode
“…70 miles to a walk-in clinic…” It’s interesting because today, there would probably be several urgent care centers within a short drive of his home. But when this show was made those were almost unheard of. Your options were the ER or a free clinic that served the poor. It’s amazing how much things change in just 20 years.
@@lewisshemery2585 Because A) His wife will find out, and B) he has no way to Verify if he actually has the STD or not, so C) he has to now go somewhere Else for a second opinion to Even get a Prescription which means More Medical Bills, as House can't treat him anymore as he's being sued... >.>
@@matana4567 basically he told him he has a illness which can cause a lot of stress and mental distress in patient because of the pains. So if he sued him, he can give him lab results, ultimately making the court case unwinnable for the jerk. If he ran second test, it would show he has no illness, so the stress would be from house, making him win the case.
Not only that but they were in litigation as soon as he handed him that lawsuit. Really shouldn't be treating someone who is suing you or in the process of doing so. Conflict of interest. @@janschropfer439

I like how smart this doctor was even on the last season where he went to a recovery mental health facility and outsmarted the nurses, also very good at getting answers by digging through someone.
Surprisingly enough, one of the schools in our Conference would yell out things like that as we were serving (collegiate volleyball 30 short years ago) to try and mess with us. The worst it did was make us laugh. Good times.
Dude, you made the right choice - but don't think of things as black and white. Maintain infrequent/frequent contact on your terms, but do stay in touch. Family blood can be a funny thing, and when he's gone, don't leave yourself thinking "what if?" Obviously, all relationships have transactional value, and if yours with him is never bringing something to the table, then sure, let him know why - because he might love you more than you imagine, but may not be able to express that to you. Love is all about being vulnerable, but by being vulnerable, that doesn't make you stupid, huh? Big hug and a warm handshake from me, buddy. ✌️
Kinda stupid to try and sue multiple doctors for easy pay instead of for legitimate reasons; Literally setting yourself up to essentially be avoided by medical professionals when you need real help, and next to no willing to help out of fear of being taken to court.
How, in the decades that both of those have been around, did I not realize that they were played by the same actor until you mentioned it... I can't believe I missed that 😂😂😂
More like they’re quitting because they realized that too much of medicine is a scam designed to treat the symptoms instead of the cause.... all for the money
"Lawyers gonna love it." "Why would I wanna sue you?" He just confirmed that he sued a bunch of doctors. Pretty sure normal people, would ask why they would need a lawyer in the first place.
People who have tried this in real life eventually get caught and wind up with a massive class action lawsuit against them that will put them in traction for the rest of their life.
Found a paragraph guy.... Basically since he has gonorrhea, dr will have to disclose this in a court, which will lead the court to call all his sex partners ,nd his wife would know he is cheating

Just curious about what the kid ended up with and what you caught with the PSA/free PSA. You are suggesting he had Prostate CA and y’all caught it with the PSA test. With a 15 year old, it would not be my first response either, but probably would have ordered just to r/o that pathway.
@@angelaseymour4464 Yeah didn't even notice the spell check. Incontinence is what I meant. I can barely spell my own name TBH.
@@rash9488that’s cool. I was just rewriting my comment too. Just wondering what y’all caught. I would not have thought PSA either but glad you did.
@@rash9488 the best doctors are usually surrounded by the best nurses!!
PSA? Public service announcement?
House absolutely HATED working clinic hours on this show. This is actually common, I’ve had doctors who have to work ER shifts to maintain their certifications to work in hospitals. So, part of his job is to do clinic rotations, and he did legit everything he could to get out of it. Being sued means he cannot take patients in the clinic until it’s cleared. He was loving every moment of this and knew from the start being sued meant no clinic hours and he also just enjoyed screwing with people. But yeah this was to escape clinic rotations for a bit lol.
Forgot he was doing that. Nice way to get outta crap work.
What a way to trash at your job
@@epgamer1145 He’s the world’s leading diagnostician in the show, he only gets patients that other doctors fail to diagnose and so they can’t treat them, he has (over the life of the show) 3-6 of the best and brightest graduates from medical school and it’s like THE residency that everyone wants because he’s so brilliant.
But he’s also incredibly miserable and he’s very very hooked on pain pills because his leg needed to be amputated at one point and he refused so now he’s just trapped in unending agony and can’t really walk. He requires a cane.
No matter what he does, he never gets reprimanded very harshly, because the hospital admin doesn’t want to lose the prestige he brings to the hospital. They’re world renowned because of House. He’s crazy and rude and superhumanly brilliant.
It makes the show fun to watch. It isn’t realistic. You can’t have a doctor practicing medicine while actively in the throes of a very bad pill add1ction. He even makes his residents break into patient’s homes to do recon because he thinks everyone is a liar. It’s just entertainment.
@@dantekyle1775 He did the most batsh1t crazy stuff on that show to get out of clinic rotations lol… He would page Cuddy for consults on things like common cold and rashes hoping she’d get so annoyed she’d stop making him do them… In one episode he started calling people by their medical concerns to prove he had no more patients so he could leave but really they were all there and just didn’t want to be like, “Weird Discharge? Yeah that’s me!” Lmao.., Ridiculous but entertaining fr…..
Thank you for explaining the reasoning. It was obvious he wanted to go through with it but the short didn't explain his intent
"I didn't say I wouldn't treat you."
- Dr. House, every god damned time
When House took the Hippocratic Oath, he never meant verbal harm.
le me translate "im gonna have some fun now"
@@FenrirEX He instead took the "Hypocritic" Oath in this case.
He repeatedly harmed people when experimenting on them, even though it's to find a cure/treatment.
When your opponent knows what's in your hand and doesn't blink, you should probably fold.
just don't fold right before the reveal, that's how you lose a winning hand

Fun fact; people with entitlement behaviour will do things like this often, that’s why all hospital workers document everything. And when I mean everything I mean THE DOCUMENT EVERHTING
That’s true but from personal experience they don’t always document things correctly.
@@boydmccollum692 yeah. It’s always just what’s gonna protect them from getting fired
It's always good to document everhting lmao I just picture an Asian person saying this
As a hospital worker...we document EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING. If the big shots in suits started telling us we needed to document when the patient sneezes or coughs, you can bet we're documenting every single sniffle and cleared throat!
@@boydmccollum692 People's bad memory doesn't alter the direct quotes on the medical record 😂
Fun fact: the author of Sherlock Holmes was a medical student who was taught to observe the patient carefully to give medical diagnosis much like House, this is what inspired Sherlock Holmes
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was also a general practitioner for 10 years before becoming an ophthalmologist (which he viewed as a failed pursuit). He only ever stopped medicine and became a full time author after nearly dying of influenza.
House = Holmes
Wilson = Watson.
What’s even better is that house is based on Sherlock Holmes.
He was inspired by his colleague Dr. Joseph Bell and the character of Holmes is based on him. In the show, Wilson gifts House a book written by Dr.Joseph Bell, a nice little reference to this detail.
@@ExhaustedScarfwhat surpised me is that comment leaver either forgot to mention it or hasn't seen the fact that house is based on holmes which seems unlikely.

You'd think a fella who's sued every doctor is a 60 mile radius would know that you can't serve papers in your own case.
Yup. 😂
As someone who has no idea how it works in America…what are those papers? I keep seeing people being handed “papers” in movies and it’s handed to that specific person, why? Why not a phone call? An email? Why can’t he give him his own papers?
@@heisafraidbecause (as far as I’ve heard) when the person is handed the papers in person, they can’t turn around and say they didn’t receive them. If it was any other way, the person could also say “I wasn’t informed”.
@@heisafraid legal notice of a lawsuit. You can't serve papers in your own case because you the plaintiff have a vested interest in the service being done incorrectly - if you throw the papers on someone's trash can and say "I served the papers by hand delivery to their address", you can get the court to issue a default judgement without the defendant actually being notified of the lawsuit, which would violate the defendant's due process rights. The court may allow methods other than delivery of papers depending on local laws, but the point is that it has to be done fairly to ensure that the defendant is fully aware that they're being sued and has the chance to respond.
The guy that's sued every doctor in a 60 mile radius may also be running low on lawyers!
John Funsten came to the clinic with an abcess on his knee. House worked out that he had originally had a small pus filled sac, but had decided to try to relieve the pressure with something like a nail file, which only made it worse. Funsten tried to deny it at first, then admitted it. House offered Funsten a Vicodin for the pain which Funsten happily accepted.
House then looked at the patient file and realized that Funsten lived 70 miles away from Princeton. When Funsten didn't have a reason for being in Princeton, House surmised, correctly, that he wasn't allowed to go to any closer hospital, probably because he was in litigation with them. Funsten denied it, or that he wanted to sue House, but House started asking him inappropriate questions because that would help a malpractice case. Thinking House will also refuse to treat him, House tells him to stay put and that he will drain the pus and run lab tests to make sure it isn't anything serious.
House is dead on - Funsten returns almost immediately to serve a malpractice suit and House isn't surprised. He's also ready for him. He tells Funsten that he has gonorrhea and that House is duty bound to tell the state's medical officer of health. They will tell his wife so she can get tested. House says he would run another test, but he's not going to. He tells Funsten that since they're in litigation, he can't give him the test results, but it should be easy to prove he's clean - he just has to find another doctor to run another test.
Thank you paragraph person. You're doing the Lord's work ❤ I had to scroll a bit too long to find this tbh
I’m still confused does he have gonorrhea? Does his wife not know that he scams people? What does this do necessarily?
@@jasonmurdoc9533 they leave it open ended with this little “check mate” moment but I could speculate if it helps you close the chapter in your head: he doesn’t have gonorrhea but since John is an asshole, house wants to humiliate him so says since they’re in litigation he will report that John has it to the state and they’ll call his wife to let her know she’s been exposed. Whether he could have it or not, his wife would theoretically not believe him saying it’s a false positive if she’s told by the state and his chances of getting another doctor SOMEWHERE to retest and confirm he doesn’t have it are slim bc he’s sued so many that no one will treat him. So he would have to consider dropping the litigation or call Houses bluff on the test results and hope he can find someone else to retest him so he can get the quick money he wants at the potential cost of his marriage
@@moonfish6588 peace be with you, my child. LOL I don’t mind dropping in the wiki summaries for the greater good haha
@@jasonmurdoc9533 Gonorrhea is an STD. I would assume that it's true that he does have it (you don't need a second test for that.)
His wife is not necessarily complicit in his scams, but probably is. The point is, the woman from whom he contracted gonorrhea is most likely NOT his wife.
House was like "Jokes on you, I'm my hospital's pet legal nightmare! This is going to be their easiest case in my entire career."
Pet legal nightmare and pet trick pony
That "these are mine now" has some serious "Nows yous can't leave" energy.

Repeated offense of wrongfullyvsueing hospials should lose him his right to sue hospitals. Its criminal
Due to years of lobbying by medical associations, it’s actually quite difficult to sue doctors.
Even when they have done something wrong.

Dude should've bailed the moment he knew House knows
😂😂😂😂😂
Please 😂🎯🤣 Preach
He did try a tactical retreat. House out flanked him and had a treatment for that.
Also technically even though it's a show, The guy is not legally allowed to serve the papers for court himself he has to have someone else do it it's illegal to serve your own papers.
A lot of times these type of people try to keep the smallest paper trail possible so even though they are willing to sue they first approach with an intent to sue to try and get a quick settlement out of court and without court records. Basically give me money and I will sign that I won't sue you
Depends, I've served my own papers every time I didn't send it registered mail and haven't broken any laws. In my jurisdiction only family law stuff can't be served personally, civil is free game.
I think in most states it's an optional service for a fee to have the sheriff's office serve papers otherwise you do so yourself or have a process server do it.

“…70 miles to a walk-in clinic…” It’s interesting because today, there would probably be several urgent care centers within a short drive of his home. But when this show was made those were almost unheard of. Your options were the ER or a free clinic that served the poor. It’s amazing how much things change in just 20 years.
Bro should’ve known not to fuck with house after he immediately deduced what his scheme was
Uno reverse card at its finest.
I dont get it, what does an STD have to do with him getting sued?
@@lewisshemery2585 Because A) His wife will find out, and B) he has no way to Verify if he actually has the STD or not, so C) he has to now go somewhere Else for a second opinion to Even get a Prescription which means More Medical Bills, as House can't treat him anymore as he's being sued... >.>
“Normally I’d run a second test but since your here, I’ll just go with the first.” Love house
What is the joke here, can u explain? Not native speaker..
@@matana4567 basically he told him he has a illness which can cause a lot of stress and mental distress in patient because of the pains. So if he sued him, he can give him lab results, ultimately making the court case unwinnable for the jerk. If he ran second test, it would show he has no illness, so the stress would be from house, making him win the case.
Not only that but they were in litigation as soon as he handed him that lawsuit. Really shouldn't be treating someone who is suing you or in the process of doing so. Conflict of interest.

Dude, you made the right choice - but don't think of things as black and white. Maintain infrequent/frequent contact on your terms, but do stay in touch. Family blood can be a funny thing, and when he's gone, don't leave yourself thinking "what if?"
Obviously, all relationships have transactional value, and if yours with him is never bringing something to the table, then sure, let him know why - because he might love you more than you imagine, but may not be able to express that to you.
