Charles Toulson, M.D.
Orthopedic Surgeon
Premier Surgeon for Hip and Knee Replacement
Dr. Charles Toulson is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon, fellowship
trained in adult reconstruction. Dr. Toulson earned his medical degree
from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He has extensive
experience that began with his training at Johns Hopkins Hospital, the
highest ranked hospital in the United States. He then completed his
sub-specialty training at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York,
which has the top orthopedic program in the country. Dr. Toulson has
been voted among D Magazine’s Best Doctors, Living Magazine’s Best
of McKinney/Allen, and he was featured on CBS 11 News!
Dr. Toulson is a pioneer in direct anterior hip replacement
surgery. Using only a three-to-four-inch incision, anterior hip
replacement surgery allows for a faster recovery, less pain, and
alleviates the need for postoperative hip range of motion
restrictions. As a result of its muscle-sparing approach, it is most
attractive to patients. This minimally invasive technique is so
effective that patients are often walking the same or next day
without a walker, cane, or crutches.
Dr. Toulson is considered a leader in the Dallas/Fort Worth
area in Robotic-Assisted hip and knee replacement and has
performed more robotic joint replacements than any
other surgeon in the area. He was the first surgeon in
the area to perform a direct anterior hip replacement
with robotic assistance. Most recently, Dr. Toulson
completed the first ever, total knee replacement
for both of a patient’s knees bilater¬ally
(simultaneously) using the MAKO™
Robotic-Arm Assisted Technology.
Dr. Toulson’s education and training are
only outmatched by his warm smile and
kind-hearted nature.
