In my experience, the most common term is "brujo" which generically means "witch" and can be associated with shamanic/healer types of practicioners as well as practicioners with darker, less-than-benevloent intentions. A witch doctor can also be referred to as a "curandero," which implies that they're more of a healer, or as a "santero" when referring to a practicioner of Santeria, specifically.

Masculine, el brujo. Feminine, la bruja. Brujo or bruja means witch. In Mexico, it is commonly used for a healer who uses supernatural means such as spells to effect healing, usually along with natural remedies and medicines that can be bought over the counter in Mexico, and sometimes other modalities as well.
