In my country there are not many "médicos de cabecera" left. Those were the ones who used to go to the house of the patients to examine them and prescribe medication, and would not transfer the patients to the hospital unless it was absolutely necessary . If that is the doctor you are referring to here, then the term family doctor seems suitable

regards
