My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

As a farm kid growing up in a small community, I developed a profound appreciation for life which lead me to medical school. It is truly an honor and privilege to work as a physician. Although I do enjoy the challenges of helping people overcome their illnesses, I find the most satisfaction working with my patients to create and maintain healthy lifestyles; which allows them to live life to the fullest. The MDVIP practice model allows me the time to practice medicine the way I was trained and always thought it should be done.

With nearly 25 years of practicing in this community, I have developed relationships with local specialists to help me care for patients with difficult or special needs. I am affiliated with the Carson Tahoe Regional Medical Center.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Bottenberg

from Jacqueline in NV January 23, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

Thank you and your very kind and helpful staff for many years of expert care solving the many medical issues I've experienced during this time.

from Bruce in NV January 23, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

A moment to remember, one that made a difference to me how I think of Doctor B. I had been a patient of B’s since 2006. He decided to become an MDVIP doctor and that ended our doctor/patient relationship at that time. I decided it was too costly - I didn’t understand the program – and it was just time for me to move on and find a different doctor. Well, I did that. After a short struggle and… See more

from Carol in NV January 22, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

Dr. Bottenberg is very professional, knowledgeable and caring. He is always helpful in answering questions that I have. He always says that if I need to talk to him after normal hours or weekends, to call him and he will get back to me and he has! I really appreciate him! Thanks!

from James in NV January 20, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

Dr B has helped me with my health by adjusting my medication and helping me feel better.
He is like a priest who will listens to all of my sins and forgives me.
He is like a bartender who gives good advice on everything.
The whole staff are kind and respectful.

from Murray in NV January 18, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

I’m a retired doc so picking a colleague for my wife and I was a challenging task. B, as he prefers to be called, remains a key element in our staying healthy. He’s always available, open to discussions and up in the latest information. We travel a lot and regularly consult (long distance) with B on how we are doing. You couldn’t ask for a better primary care physician.

from Michael in NV January 18, 2024 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

I would like to publicly thank Dr. B. Bottenberg for his amazing care, attitude, commitment, and loyalty he has displayed while he has been my Doctor. I wish there was one specific event that I could highlight but he has stepped up every time and gone above and beyond what was ever expected of him. Dr. Bottenberg has been my PCP since 2011. I have had my fair share of medical events… See more

from Diane in NV March 26, 2020 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

First time I went to Dr. B (Bottenberg) he told me to stop drinking as much water as I do. I have never heard a doctor say this. They always seem to be telling you to drink more water. He explained that when it was stated that we need 8 cups of water a day, people to not add all of the things that they drink that is not water. Because of this we end up drinking a lot of water and end up… See more

from Carol in NV March 17, 2020 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

Thank you for always being available to answer all my questions whether in your office or on the phone. You are so caring and helpful. When I called to ask you a question about my 4 year old great grandson and his medical problems, you gave professional advice on his medications. His doctor had prescribed medicine for him which had caused him to be depressed and agitated. I called my… See more

from John in NV March 12, 2020 for B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA

Dr. B has been my physician for many years and he is the best doctor that I have ever had. He diagnosed the genetic cholesterol issue that was a major factor in the deaths of my dad and older brother. If it wasn't for him, I don't think I would be here today.
