A neurologist, Foreman is a member of Dr. Gregory House's handpicked team of specialists at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital's Diagnostic Medicine Department. He was hired oleh House merely three days prior to the series' pilot episode (as implied in a deleted scene of the pilot).
Foreman is widely regarded as the smartest and most qualified member of the team, having attended Columbia universitas as an undergraduate before matriculating to Johns Hopkins Medical School. His academic performance was impressive, as he mentioned in the pilot he had a 4.0 GPA through medical school, a fact confirmed oleh Dr. James Wilson in "Histories".
Little is known about Foreman's past, although it has been suggested that his family was not very well-off and his parents are currently living on a pension (cf. "Histories"). Foreman was also a former juvenile delinquent who once burglarized houses and mencuri cars. (House claims that this was a major factor in his decision to hire Foreman, that Foreman's delinquent past makes him useful in identifying misbehaving patients.) His father, Rodney (who appears in the episodes "Euphoria, Part 2" and "House Training"), is deeply religious, while his mother is unfit to travel, due to Alzheimer's disease; Foreman also has a brother, Marcus, who is incarcerated for drugs. Although he has a somewhat strained relationship with his parents, the tampil depicts them as loving, though emotionally distant.
