Biography

Dr Bottlang received his PhD in Biomechanical Engineering from the University of Iowa. He came to Legacy in 1999 to start the Legacy Biomechanics Laboratory. He developed a “pelvic sling” that stabilizes fractures of the pelvis to minimize internal bleeding and resulting mortality. Today, his patented device is the standard of care for pelvic fracture stabilization in over 40 countries.
