The medical conditions might be more realistic in House, but the process and behavior of people certainly aren't.

It's similar with programming on TV. If you look at Mr. Robot, all the hacking methods and computer jargon are really accurate, down to KDE vs. GNOME rivalry, but the plot is total fantasy and nobody behaves as real programmers do. On the other hand, Silicon Valley is more like scrubs - the software is made up, it's a comedy, but the story and people are 100% realistic (except better dressed, since it's still Hollywood).
