    I think House likes her because she's no nonsense and has the wicked sense of humor he loves. House doesn't tolerate fools. This lady is no fool. Hence the respect.

    House has soft spots for patients that don't hide stuff and are open. His whole "everyone lies" is what drives him crazy. This old lady was always open so he treated her with kindness. Though he couldn't speak, there was an austictic kid that he also showed a lot of compassion to.

  • @ctpLynae

    I think House actually handles most of his patients in the way that is going to be most effective in getting them the help they need. Sometimes, it is by convincing them in a tactful and respectful manner, other times, the use of sarcasm and shock value are considered more effective. He takes the things that his patients and their families tell him, and turns it so that he can get their issues taken care of in the fastest possible way. He learned that she just wanted to feel good, so that is how he presented the treatment. I think a lot of the 'he has bad bedside manner' is that most people can't handle how blunt he can tend to be, when the situation calls for a firm hand.

      While it works for Dr House and for the purpose of the show, this wouldn't sail in real life. Doctors with a "kinder" approach are definitely the standard, why heap more distress on a person who is already likely dealing with a distressing condition. I am certain there are more considerate ways to help patients.

    This is one of my favorite episodes in the whole series. If I recall, it's one of the very few times House actually says the name of his patient. The older woman who doesn't want to spend the rest of her life playing canasta is Broadway and TV favorite Shirley Knight. The longer part of the episode is a truly amazing drama of a helicopter mom. Season 1, Episode 8.

    Regarding House being nice. I think his fundamental character trait is that he hates all the posturing and lies, so he mocks people for them. This woman admitted she had sex and knew what syphilis was, so he spoke to her plainly.
    Yes, he's addled by pain pills and neuroses, yes he's an insufferable narcissist, but he really is the smartest person in the room. He's tired of people thinking their stupid little lies will fool him. If they don't lie, he doesn't get mad at them.

    I watched the entire series back then when it first came out. Maybe we Europeans are more used at people being blunt and saying things like they are instead of sugar coating them with a fake grin, a cultural difference between the US and France or Germany e.g. I've learned about since, and he had a Dutch grandmother as we learn at some point. House is actually a nice guy who genuinely cares about people (actions matter more than words). I've read a lot of medical articles for my job (translator) but also out of curiosity, and some of the "zebras" we get to see in the show, as crazy as it seems, have actually happened, they have been mentioned in some articles... So it's also interesting for that, and entertaining at the same time. Maybe I should watch them again.

    The reason House gets snarky with patients is that they are doing stupid things. See the "contraceptive jelly" clinic short. Also, he hates it when people lie to him, not least because it impairs his ability to treat them.
    Georgia here, was smart enough to realize that feeling good wasn't normal and talked to him frankly. She could even give a good reason for refusing treatment. Frankly, I think he respects her intelligence.
    I suggest you react to the House "bilingual backfire" episode. That one is hysterical. 😂

  • @mr.e1026
    @mr.e1026 4 месяца назад

    Shirley Knight (rest in peace) was a class act. She did a wonderful job of the role of Georgia in that episode of House.
    House is not a jerk across the board. For more evidence of that, Season 3, Episode 4, Lines in the Sand demonstrates this. Certainly, he'll never be Allison Cameron, but he did mention once in Season 1 episode 9 DNR, "What would you prefer - a doctor who holds your hand while you die or one who ignores you while you get better?" In Lines in the Sand, he figures out what an autistic child, a severely autistic child is trying to communicate, leading to the diagnosis. The ending has meaning to it that is warm and fuzzy without being a trip to Disneyland, and only people who have had that experience (my youngest brother is severely autistic, non verbal, and I would have given anything for him to do what the patient in the episode did for House for me just once) they get it. IYKYK.

    There were a couple of House episodes that just tore your heart out. Well, they did me. One was "The Socratic Method" S1 E6 and the other was "Histories" S1 E10. I used to read an MD's review of all the House eps which was online for a while. His main complaint was that hospitals don't run that way -- with MDs doing lab tech tasks and also that the various diseases addressed don't typically present in such dramatic fashion. But House was never intended to be a documentary, was it?

    When I was about 10, I stepped on a thorn. It obviously wasn't comfortable, so I pulled it out from the toe. Apparently it went too deep as it looked like the toe was broken, I was then taken to an urgent care center. Where I was diagnosed with blood poisoning, so what do you get with that? A shot and I was asked hip or butt? Being young, elected for the hip probably because of the thought of it being on the butt yet that was a mistake. I'm pretty sure that it would have hurt regardless, can honestly say that shot was not fun at all.

      There is a 9-1-1 season 3 clip that is on youtube I think you could watch just for fun as it takes place in a older folks home as the man who is being just a normal man has a STD on his groin and it turns out that is it a flesh eating one and it is revealed that he sleep with a lot of the women and so did some other men. The kids just can't believe that there dad has done something like this.
      Chicago Med has something like this as well and the younger staff can't get through the idea of the old ladies have sex and such.

    House is a jerk many times; but there is a general misconception that he is with everyone, no matter the circumstances. And that's generally not true. He mistreats some patients (and people) because he approaches them with the mantra that "everybody lies" and "humans are idiots"; so, when others try to get away with some idiotic behavior or story... he pretty much hammers them down back to reality. But this lady doesn't fall in any of those categories, so House has no real reason to apply his particular way of being to her (to her son... that's another thing). To an extent, when he is not under a lot of emotional or physical stress, he is a honorable person.

      I definitely understand that! I think that House understands that she’s not just trying to be creepy and understands it’s her medical condition leading her to behave this way, which helps frame it for him and maybe not feel so “icky” when it’s happening. Yes of course, I’m sure he feels weird, but having the understanding of *why* she’s behaving like that definitely helps make it less gross and creepy 😊 (just my humble opinion)

    So this case is almost word for word taken from Dr Oliver Sacks' "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat". The chapter "Cupid's Disease" chronicles the case of 89 year old Natasha K who had worked in a brothel in her youth and contracted syphilis. It remained latent for 70 years before presenting itself. Same story as the episode, she rejected the treatment before Dr Sacks explained the damage had already been done, the treatment would only kill the spirochetes and would leave her with her new disinhibited mentality.

I don't think it warrants a malpractice suit, but filing complaints with patient advocacy and the state medical board have to be done, while I'm having to deal with my illness. Grrrr.

    House liked Georgia because she knew her symptoms, was honest to a fault, and SO PATIENT with her VERY annoying son. She also complimented him and his effort repeatedly. Honestly, besides the flirting, (which isn’t her fault) and her son - she was a dream patient for a mini-puzzle.

    I feel like the main reason that House doesn't like actually dealing with patients is that they are unreliable. They are unnecessary to the diagnosis, because "everybody lies." You can do the medicine without their nonsense. However, in this episode, the wonderful old woman is completely honest, and her honest answers lead to a quick diagnosis...and her honest reaction to the treatment. A great episode. One of my favorites.

    2:38 In-universe (& quite frankly, in real life to, whether or not thats a good thing) the visible limp & cane are probably what allow House to get away with most of his less than pleasant actions.
    8:34 House is generally written as respecting those who are honest with both him & themselves, which that lady was, to a fault.

    One of my doctors has a very direct and blunt manner in how he speaks to patients. I'll admit that the first time that I saw him, it was shocking and off-putting, but once he explained how he works with patients, I was on board. He says that he's aggressive with new patients so they don't waste his time.
    I've referred some friends to him and I explain him beforehand to avoid surprises. While not in diagnostic medicine, my doctor reminds me of House and it's fantastic.

I am enrolled in a local college and taking a human anatomy class now, dipping my toes in the water while still holding my two current jobs. Not sure when to take the full plunge though and completely commit. It's fun when you talk about certain body parts, because of this class, I know what you're talking about.

    The injection itself doesn't hurt too much but for a week after, you feel like there's a golf ball inside you and you get a welt about an inch across - it's very painful to sit on.
