Stephen Mansfield, PhD, has served as president and CEO of Methodist Health System in Dallas since 2006. Under his leadership, Methodist Health has doubled in size and experienced the most profitable years in its history.
Dr. Mansfield is deeply committed to Methodist Health's mission to improve and save lives through compassionate and quality healthcare. He views his leadership as a ministry to serve people from all lifestyles in a rapidly changing healthcare environment.
