Award-Winning Actress Salutes Breast Cancer Partnerships Ms.
Witherspoon also toured the Avon Comprehensive Breast Center at SFGH with Dr. Lori Strachowski, Medical Director of the Center, for a first hand look at the progress that has been made in access to breast cancer screening and care in San Francisco. Ms. Witherspoon also spent time with five local breast cancer survivors who shared their stories of survival thanks in part to the quality care provided by the Center and SFGH. The women included San Francisco resident Rosaura Recendez, who completed chemotherapy last week, and Mara Langer of San Mateo, two-time breast cancer survivor and a repeat walker in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer San Francisco.
