It's a common occurence, the thing about all the medical jargon XD It's kind of like watching Star Trek or Doctor Who: after a while you get used to having some terms fly over your head, but you enjoy it immensely anyway, and after a while you tend to start picking things up. Medical things I learned from House: blot clots are called different things when they're found in different areas of the body. An infarction when it's in the muscles, a pulmonary embolism when in the lungs, a heart attack in the heart, a stroke in the brain. SEE, I ARE TEH SMART.
But yes, the writing is excellent and the dialogue is especially sharp and witty. As you progress, you will realize that, yes, this is the GREATEST THING EVAR. House is an awesomely manipulative bastard, but you can't help but love him and his antics :D And Wilson, too. He gets progressively more fabulous and snarky, so I'm sure you'll love it.
