Background · Complex Care
Slower medicine. On purpose.
The kind of primary care that used to be the standard.
Med-Glo Primary Care is the medical home Dr. Recalde’s patients have been asking for. Same doctor and same Mission Viejo office as our aesthetic side — but here the visit is about your health and the kind of unhurried, continuous care that’s become hard to find.
Dr. Recalde is a board-certified family medicine physician with a hospitalist background, which means she’s comfortable managing everything from routine physicals to complex chronic conditions. She speaks English and Spanish fluently, and she sees adults of all ages — including Medicare patients looking for a doctor who will take the time to know them.
We accept most major insurance plans — including Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Medicare, and most PPO plans. If your plan isn’t listed, call us — we’ll verify your coverage before you book.

Dr. Violeta
Recalde, MD
With over two decades of medical experience and a hospitalist background, Dr. Recalde brings a level of clinical depth most primary care offices can’t. She’s comfortable with the complex cases — multi-condition patients, the ones who got missed somewhere else — not just the easy ones.
Fluent in English and Spanish, she personally evaluates every patient and runs every visit herself. No hand-offs, no second-tier care, no re-explaining your history to a new face every time you come in.
