About Dr. Wilensky

SURGICAL PRECISION, TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION

Dr. Jon Wilensky, MD MBA, is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Diplomate of the American Board of Plastic Surgery, based in the San Diego and the Central Valley regions of California. With over 19 years of experience, he specializes in Aesthetic Surgery of the breast and body, including tummy tucks, breast augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, and fat transfer. Dr. Wilensky is also a prolific researcher and writer, having published numerous papers, particularly on traumatic wounds and general Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery.

A native of New York City, Dr. Wilensky was born to public servants, an elementary school teacher and an NYPD police officer. He attended The Stuyvesant High School, the premier public math and science high school, which required a rigorous 2-hour commute each way from Staten Island to Manhattan. At 17, he was one of just nine high school seniors nationwide invited to attend both undergraduate and medical school at The University of Michigan as part of the prestigious 7-Year Integrated BS-MD dual degree program. By 24, he completed his MD degree at The University of Michigan Medical School and matched into the highly competitive Integrated Plastic Surgery residency program at the University of Michigan Health System, completing this rigorous 6-year post-MD training in 2006. He achieved Board Certification from the American Board of Plastic Surgery in November 2007, having just turned 32 the month prior, becoming the youngest Plastic Surgeon to ever be Certified by the Board.

Dr. Wilensky is deeply invested in the emerging fields of implantable biotechnology and cellular therapeutics. He has served as Lead Surgeon in multiple clinical trials, including studies on implantable sensors and cell therapy, and has consulted for numerous early- and mid-stage companies. He recently served as the Head of Surgery for ViaCyte, Inc., which was acquired by VERTEX Pharmaceuticals to advance curative programs for Type 1 Diabetes. He currently serves as a Surgical & Technical Consultant to both Encellin and Novo Nordisk/Aspect Biosystems, helping to guide their implantable cell therapy and implantable bioprinted tissue therapy programs, respectively.

Designated as an Emerging Leader in Biotechnology, Dr. Wilensky received a fellowship to complete an MBA from the University of California-San Diego Rady School of Management, focusing on Technology Commercialization, Disruptive Innovation, and Entrepreneurship. While at Rady, he co-founded Braykion, a digital health technology company addressing hospital-acquired infections due to non-compliance with handwashing guidelines. This technology has now been adopted by Apple and is included in the Apple Watch whereby the smartwatch can detect when you’re washing your hands and start a 20-second timer. His passion for innovative technology and patient care is evident in his work. He is committed to creating implantable, injectable, and wearable medical devices and advancements that benefit his patients and all of humanity.

Currently, Dr. Wilensky focuses his plastic surgery practice on Beautologie – Cosmetic Surgery, Medical Aesthetics & Wellness. He is a Consulting Surgeon in this premier multi-partner, single-specialty, Plastic Surgery group. For his Hospital-based Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Wilensky is an Attending Surgeon at both Palomar Health, the largest public health district in California and a member of the Mayo Clinic Care Network, and Scripps Health. Dr. Wilensky provided Level II Trauma Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery on-call services to his community for 16 years. This included the broad range of General Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, and Adult & Pediatric acute and chronic Burn Reconstructive Surgery.

Outside his professional commitments, Dr. Wilensky enjoys spending time with his wife and two daughters, ages 20 and 17. An avid outdoorsman, he has climbed Mt. Shasta twice, Mt. Rainier, and completed a 24-hour endurance walk across and back the Grand Canyon 12 times. He has scaled Mount Kilimanjaro as a member of the Global Access to Cancer Care Foundation’s “Climb for Hope,” the highest peak in Africa. He has also completed climbs of Mount Aconcagua, the highest peak in South America and the Western Hemisphere, as well as Mount McKinley (Denali) in North America.

Our Patients Say It Best

The staff was very professional and friendly. Doctor Debbie was very sweet, and the procedure was painless. I experienced great results within two weeks. The product I tried was new to me, and I was very satisfied with the results. I will definitely be back.

I was highly satisfied with my experience because from the very beginning, I felt very comfortable with how the office was managed. I feel that they were organized and communicated well with me. I have health anxiety and Dr. Ford made me feel as calm as possible. Her knowledge and expertise made me feel the most comfortable. Dr. Ford was very kind and patient. She answered all my questions before and after my procedure. She genuinely cares about providing the best results. She is absolutely the best in every way!

The hospitality of the entire team is excellent. Dr. Ford educated me on implant choices and explained the value in why one product would preferable vs another. After care was also amazing and respect for privacy is also nice.

Everything about my surgical experience was fantastic. Dr. Ford was amazing from consultation through my recent 4 month post op follow up. I absolutely adore her bedside manner and attention to detail. She’s very thorough and my results are exceptional. I highly recommend her to everyone.

The staff was welcoming and friendly. They were also conscience of my privacy. I appreciated how comfortable they were and how they made me feel comfortable also. Everyone I talked to had knowledge of their department and could answer other questions with confirmation that the information provided was accurate. The doctor was personable, funny, and easy to talk to. He gave me options my consultations before him didn't. I really felt like the whole staff and doctor really cared about their patients and wanted to provide the best care and service possible. Loved Dr Eichenberg and his beautiful staff!

Everyone was very informative, however I did not get the procedure because I wanted to see how my friend does with the more minor procedure.

Dr. Ford changed my life. My new body has given me the confidence I really need at my age after the personal trauma I just went through.

I had an amazing experience all the way through! I can't say enough about Dr. Filip! He exceeded my expectations! He is kind, caring, and above all brilliant at what he does. He’s a doctor that genuinely cares for his patients before, during, and after surgery. Thank you Dr. Filip and all the staff at Renuance for being great at what you do!
