About B Bottenberg, DO, FNLA
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.

my initial consultation and follow up visits with him, he confidently…
What was the first thing that surprised me was that he listened! Really Listened!!

Frequently Asked Questions
Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.
Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.
MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.
