Perry T Mansfield, MD

Absolutely the best Doctor I have had the pleasure of knowing. He performed a very difficult Thyroidectomy on me with amazing success. I am a high risk surgical patient with Congestive Heart Failure. Medication side effects caused my Thyroid to go haywire. My thyroid was subsequently very hard and fibrous requiring the utmost surgical skill and precision to keep the nerves to my vocal chords in tact. Dr. Mansfield is a 5 Star Doctor.
I feel very fortunate to have been in his care. My other San Diego Specialists insisted that Dr. Mansfield was the only surgeon they would consider for my surgery. They were spot on their advice!

I needed surgery and I finally found Dr. Perry Mansfield (SENTA Clinic) through the recommendation of a well respected surgeon I know.
Mansfield was uniquely qualified for the type of surgery I needed. As soon as my wife and I met and consulted with Dr. Mansfield, I had confidence in him. The results were fantastic.
I am so grateful I found Mansfield. Everyone that has any contact with him (from the janitors, all the way up to his doctor peers) has a great regard for him. This guy is the total package. He is a confident surgeon, while at the same time being a great listener. I can’t say enough good things about him.
Thanks Dr. Mansfield.

I had an appointment to remove a mucocele on my lip that was bothering me for some time. Dr. Mansfield removed it succussfully and I’ve had no other issues with it.
If that were the end of the story, I would be giving a much higher rating.
— The time I had to wait to see Dr. Mansfield each time I had an appointment was excruciating. At least twice I waited OVER AN HOUR combined in the waiting room and in the examination room (after my appointment time) to be seen by Dr. Mansfield.
— After I had my mucocele removed, I complained about a clicking jaw problem I’ve had, and asked Dr. Mansfield if he could refer me to someone to take care of it. We did a CT scan on my head that showed I had a fairly large polyp/​mucocele that was growing next to my nose, and a deviated right septum. The polyp was starting to change the shape of my upper palette, showing It had been growing there for some time. When we discovered it, Dr. Mansfield advised me, in a very serious tone, that if «I were his son» he would strongly advise me to take care of this polyp right away. In order to do a biopsy and remove it, he said the procedure is usually to go through the nose, and since I had a deviated septum, this might not be possible, and the doctor was strongly pushing that I do a procedure to repair the deviated septum. If anyone is unaware, repairing a deviated septum is a painful process, and it takes about 6 weeks to fully recover. This would be extremely inconvenient for me at this time in my life, and I explained that to Dr. Mansfield, but he continued to say that this type of procedure never comes around during a convenient time, and he continued to support it. I smelled something fishy going on so I got an opinion with a second doctor who looked at my scan, and did a procedure where he stuck a camera up my nose to look at my deviated septum. The second doctor said I indeed had a deviated right septum, but it wasn’t necessary to operate on. Also, the doctor said the thing growing next to my nose was a benign mucocele that is fairly common. In and out, no more worries, and no unnecessary surgery. The 2^nd doctor prescribed me some nasal spray to relieve congestion that was a little more pronounced because of the deviated septum.
I’m sure Dr. Mansfield is a competent doctor and surgeon, but the way he recommended and strongly urged me to seriously consider unnecessary surgery was quite disconcerting.

i had a tumor. the size of a plum. in my head. he took it out.
i remember a time when i smoked cigarettes. i would breathe smoke out my nose. but it only came out of one nostril. i thought it was some cute allergy thing. i was wrong.
one doctor made it sound like it was an easy outpatient surgery that i could do at any time. he was wrong.
some time went by.
went and got it checked again. it wasn’t as easy as the first guy thought. so much, that i was told to see Dr. Mansfield.
for reals. it makes good practice to get a second, or even a third opinion.
where do i start? for one, he has this overwhelming sense of confidence that makes you feel secure and at ease; you just know that you’re in capable hands. he’s got this gangster-​like quality to him.
i named my tumor morton.
morton had decided to attach to my left eye, and was about to creep into this crevice that lead into my ear. it was growing in a highly sensitive (or did he say critical) area, and the potential for damage was up there.
i was told there was a possibility of me having double vision afterwards because they’d have to remove the tumor from my eyes nerve endings. they also thought that i’d need a blood transfusion due to the blood loss.
neither was the case. no blood transfusion, and no double vision. waking up with catheter did suck though.
it was supposed to be a 5 ½ hour surgery. he did in 5. holler.
they must’ve done a number on my face, because they had to reconstruct my nose. my insurance was fighting them on it because they considered it «cosmetic.» they eventually got them to concede. bastards. they cut out my cheek bone, then screwed it back on, and the rest – as they say – is history. you ever see that movie face off where they take of that guys face… yeah. this must be why girls don’t talk to me T_​T
so if you ever meet me in person and i spit on you while i’m talking. don’t get mad, it’s only because they had to saw through my upper gum line, and i can’t feel it anymore.
i don’t ever take simple things like breathing for granted.
i don’t even know why i’m writing this. i don’t think anyone reads my ish anyways. b00bs. bewbies. pr0nz. pewpewpew.
