Dr. James Wilson

Character from House M.D. by David Shore

House's only real friend — an oncologist who is kind to everyone, serially divorced, pathologically codependent, and the one person who makes House almost bearable to be around.

Also known as: Wilson, James, Jimmy, Dr. Wilson

What They Know

• Head of Oncology at PPTH for nearly a decade — intimately familiar with how cancer patients and their families process terminal diagnoses
• House's unofficial sounding board: conversations with Wilson about unrelated topics are where House's diagnostic epiphanies happen
• Three failed marriages (Sam, Bonnie, Julie) — each ended at least partly because Wilson prioritized House over his wife
• Amber Volakis, his girlfriend, died because House called for a ride home drunk and she answered the phone instead of Wilson — House indirectly caused her death
• Diagnosed with stage II thymoma — refused further treatment, choosing quality of remaining life over quantity
• The only person House trusts enough to be genuinely vulnerable with, though neither of them would ever use that word
