This very zeal supported her as arthritis began to consume her knees, requiring bilateral knee replacements. In My Doctor Said, “Trust Me” Bach describes the painful repercussions that haunted her when these surgeries were performed poorly. She struggled to regain the full use of her knees. Abandoned by her doctors, Bach had no alternative but legal recourse. Bach hopes that her testimony will inspire young physicians to always retain the sense of compassion and empathy that initially attracted them to the medical field. She understands that mistakes can happen, but thinks that all parties benefit most when these problems are candidly discussed with patients and their families.
