curador de tudo/omnipotente
Explanation:
Normalerweise bedeutet "Haus und Hof-" eher etwas negatives, aber hier erscheint mir der Ausdruck positiv gemeint zu sein, also eher jemand der nicht nur Personen heilt. sondern alles wieder ins rechte Lot bringt.

Muito obrigada, ahartje! Eben, positiv gemeint. Há também um tom de brincadeira - curador, curandeiro. Um curandeiro "de casa", é o que usarei para Haus- und Hofheiler.

Agradeço a todos!

doutor faz-tudo


Explanation:
Entendo que Haus- und Hofheiler poderia ser entendido como "Faktotum".
No Brasil traduziria: um médico de família (ou melhor, um doutor faz-tudo) ...
Doutor é muito usado, popularmente, para designar o médico.
