In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and its remake, ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'', Dr. Toadley is first mentioned at the beginning of the game, during the meeting held in [[Peach's Castle]]'s [[Conference Hall]] about the [[blorbs]] outbreak. As he was too busy helping afflicted patients, he sent his [[Dr. Toadley's intern|intern]] to the castle in his stead.


He was first mentioned during a meeting held in [[Princess Peach's Castle]], where he was going to discuss the [[blorbs]], but he was too busy helping patients afflicted with te blorbs, so instead he sent his [[Dr. Toadley's Intern|intern]] to the castle in his stead.
Later in the game, after [[Fawful]] obtains the [[Dark Star]] and blocks off Peach's Castle, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] go to Dr. Toadley to figure out what to do about it. After [[Bowser]] shows up and is defeated, Toadley tells them about the [[Star Cure]]s. He tells the group that the first Star Cure is in [[Dimble Wood]], held by [[Durmite]]. However, Mario and Luigi remember defeating Durmite already inside Bowser, and go off to find the Star Cure.


DuLater in the game, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] go to see him for help. But there isn't anything that Dr. Toadley could do other than tell the two brothers about the [[Star Cure]]s and disclose their location. He tells the brothers that the first Star Cure is in [[Dimble Wood]], held by the sage, [[Durmite]]. However, the two brothers remembered defeating Durmite already inside [[Bowser]], and go off to find the Star Cure.
After Mario and Luigi collect the first Star Cure, Dr. Toadley, through Birdley, informs Mario, Luigi, and Bowser that the second sage is [[Kuzzle]] at [[Plack Beach]] (though his Star Cure was taken by Bowser at some earlier time and is in the treasure room at [[Bowser's Castle]]). He also informs Bowser that Mario and Luigi already have the first Star Cure. If Mario and Luigi visit Dr. Toadley at this point until obtaining the second Star Cure, he will realize that Kuzzle no longer has the Star Cure.


Later in the game, Dr. Toadley uses telepathy to talk to Mario and Luigi, but had instead appeared before Bowser. Dr. Toadley knew that the two brothers were inside Bowser, and so told Bowser and the party inside of him that the second Star Cure was located in [[Bowser's Castle]], while informing Bowser that Mario and Luigi already had the first Star Cure.
After obtaining the second Star Cure, Mario and Luigi return to Toadley Clinic, where Dr. Toadley tells them the location of the third and final Star Cure, which is high up in the air above Plack Beach. Before the brothers leave, Dr. Toadley tests Mario and Luigi's breathing to see if they are fit for high altitudes, where the air is thinner. Mario passes, and after Luigi fails, he tries again, this time breathing so hard the machine malfunctions and breaks the clinic's ventilation system. After testing, Dr. Toadley allows Mario and Luigi to get the final Star Cure while he fixes the machine.


After obtaining the second Star Cure, Mario and Luigi make their way back to [[Toadley Clinic]], where Dr. Toadley tells them the location of the third and final Star Cure, which is high up in the air above [[Plack Beach]]. But before the brothers leave, Dr. Toadley wants to check on Mario and Luigi's breathing before going up into thinner air. Mario passes, and after Luigi fails, he tries again, this time breathing so hard he blows wind through all of the vents in the clinic, and even through vents located at various places throughout the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. After testing, Dr. Toadley allows Mario and Luigi to get the final Star Cure, and begins fixing the machine that the brothers breathed into.
After Mario and Luigi get the third and final Star Cure, they once again return to Toadley Clinic. Toadley takes the three Star Cures and combines them into the [[Miracle Cure]], which he then immediately uses to cure the blorbs before giving it to the brothers. He also has his intern give Mario and Luigi a full set of [[Attack Piece]]s, allowing them to use the [[Mighty Meteor]] [[Bros. Attack|Special Attack]].


After Mario and Luigi manage to get the third and final Star Cure, they once again return to Toadley Clinic to see Dr. Toadley. Once they arrive, Dr. Toadley takes the three Star Cures and morphs them together to create the [[Miracle Cure]], which Mario and Luigi need to access Princess Peach's Caste. But before the brothers could leave, Dr. Toadley used the Miracle Cure to cure the blorbs. He then presented Mario and Luigi with ten clinic [[Attack Piece]]s, which allowed the two to learn the [[Special Move]] [[Mighty Meteor]].
