Dr. William Toole, MD

William P. Toole, MD is a board-certified, fellowship trained orthopedic surgeon in FL. A native of South Carolina, Dr. Toole graduated from the honors college at Clemson University, and then earned his medical degree (MD) with honors from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine. He completed his residency in orthopedic surgery at the University of Florida / Mayo Clinic Florida.

Following his residency, Dr. Toole completed a prestigious fellowship in shoulder and knee surgery at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. During his fellowship, Dr. Toole gained valuable experience treating professional athletes as assistant team physician for the Houston Texans (NFL), Houston Astros (MLB), Houston Rockets (NBA), and Houston Dynamo (MLS).

Dr. Toole’s expertise uses the latest minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques for the surgical management of complex shoulder and knee issues. This includes: knee ligament procedures (ACL/PCL/MCL/LCL), meniscal repair, rotator cuff repairs, labral repairs, and cartilage techniques to preserve as much of the patient’s joint as possible. Arthroscopic surgery allows patients to return to activity much sooner than outdated open procedures which employ much larger surgical incisions.

In fellowship, he was extensively trained on the use of nonoperative biologic treatment such as platelet rich plasma (PRP) to augment his surgical expertise. PRP injections are done in the clinic under ultrasound guidance to expedite the recovery and healing process.
