Dr. Bach "John R. Bach, M.D., is another must-read author in the NMD community. His book, Guide to the Evaluation and Management of Neuromuscular Disease (Hanley & Belfus, Inc., 1999), presents in plain language an excellent overview of the stages of neuromuscular disease and the medical complications that may arise in each stage. One of the refreshing differences between this book and others on the subject is Dr. Bach’s “good news,” forged in experience rather than statistics, of the treatment options that help children and adults with NMD live longer and avoid invasive medical procedures."
