Comprehensive Care,
Tailored to You

From routine check-ups to managing chronic conditions, we provide the full range of primary care services your family needs — all under one roof, right here in Santee.

Annual Physicals

A thorough yearly exam to track your health, catch issues early, and keep you feeling your best — because prevention is the best medicine.

Acute Illness & Injuries

Sick or injured? We see same-day appointments for infections, sprains, allergies, and other urgent concerns — because you shouldn't have to wait.

Chronic Condition Management

Diabetes, hypertension, asthma — we work with you on a long-term plan to keep conditions under control and living life to the fullest.

Preventive screenings

Blood work, cholesterol checks, cancer screenings, and immunizations — the tools that catch problems before they become problems.

Family Medicine

From pediatric visits to senior care, we treat patients of all ages — becoming the trusted health partner your whole family relies on.

Minor Procedures

Skin biopsies, wound care, joint injections, and other in-office procedures — because you shouldn't need a referral for straightforward care.

Dr. Mario Arellano in a warm, professional office setting

A Doctor Who
Actually Listens

Dr. Mario Arellano believes that great medicine starts with understanding — understanding your symptoms, your concerns, and the life you're trying to live. That's why every visit begins with a conversation, not a rush out the door.

Based in Santee, Dr. Arellano has built a practice rooted in the kind of care he'd want for his own family: thorough, respectful, and genuinely warm. He takes the time to explain diagnoses in plain language, discusses your options without pressure, and follows up because he cares about the outcome — not just the appointment.
