“My philosophy of care is to always be open and honest with my patients,” shares Dr. Vilensky. “I strongly believe in the shared decision making process when it comes to healthcare. Involving the patient and the family in care planning is essential.”

He completed his internal medicine residency at York Hospital in York, Pennsylvania, and his pulmonary/critical care medicine fellowship at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in Little Rock.
