I believe Dr Mauricio Palencia is a great caring doctor. It is my first time to meet him at the Aurora Urgent Care clinic in Sheboygan. I visited the clinic due to a severe cold symptoms. Dr Palencia was very patient and took his time with me, so I felt comfortable telling him about my fever and cold. He is one of the best doctors I've ever met. I am very satisfied about my visit this morning and I highly recommend him to everyone. Thank you!

I saw Dr. Palencia in the emergency department at the VA hopsital. Wow, what a nightmare. The first words out of his mouth when he walked into the room were, "what's the problem?" Seriously? You don't even bother to introduce yourself or take a look at my chart? I had a broken bone and wasn't even offered anything for the pain until I had been waiting around for 4 hours. I had to wait around another 2 hours before I could get treated. When I started to get even the slightest bit frustrated, he started to yell at me and tell me I wasn't the sickest patient so I would need to wait.

I don't mind waiting for Dr. Palencia because I know he is going to spend the same amount of time with me as he did his other patients! I never leave his office feeling like he didn't answer my questions. He is ALWAYS calm, concerned and caring. The world needs more doctors like him!!

I've had Dr. Palencia for about 2 years now and I'd recommend him highly to anyone. I was put at east immediately with his kind and gentle demeanor. He takes the time needed to fully explain everything to his patients so they understand their disease processes. The same is true about tests and treatments. Dr. Palencia helps you to feel in control of your healthcare. There is no rushing with this man. If I would have to wait a bit longer in the waiting room, I wouldn't even mind because I know when I get in there, I will get the same personalized attention as his other patients. His average waiting time is not bad though.Despite seeing many patients, Dr. Palencia has a great memory of his patients and their situation. I was impressed with that as well.I would highly recommend Dr. Palencia!
