The 5th Annual Operation Access Super Surgery Day at Kaiser Permanente San Francisco Medical Center was a super success! Needy patients received 29 donated surgical and specialty services on the morning of March 7, 2009, thanks to over 90 medical professionals and 20 other volunteers who donated their skills and expertise to help bridge the healthcare gap.
Operation Access' 2009 Volunteer Celebration was a very special evening. Nearly 130 medical volunteers, clinicians, hospital staff, and supporters gathered to celebrate. The event focused on Service for the Uninsured and the Keynote Speaker was Jane Garcia of La Clinica de la Raza. Photos from the festivities taken by Richard Tenaza and Sidney Erthal are available for viewing by clicking here.
I was going crazy because I lost my job and had no money. Once I heard about OA, I felt relieved and waited for my first appointment. -Armando, OA Patient
