It seems that with all of the shows delving into the world of doctors, just about anyone these days can perform open-heart surgery.
Just kidding, docs. I have a little more faith than that in our medical professionals — and a little less faith in the average sofa surgeon.
Still, what medical dramas do familiarize their fans with myriad types of ailments and afflictions that exist out there. I mean, we’ve all heard of leukemia, but how many of us can say we knew about acute promyelocytic leukemia before watching House?
Though we might enjoy House for the less-than-affable doc’s dismal bedside demeanour and his genius-insanity complex, we also pick up little bits of medical knowledge along the way.
Just how much of Dr. House’s talent for diagnosis has rubbed off on you? Find out in this week’s quiz and see if you know from all the many illnesses featured on the show. Good luck!
