The Philippine Cancer Society conducted breast examinations and pap smear screening activities for indigent patients of the GMA Kapuso Foundation last January 29 in observance of National Cancer Consciousness Week. The medical team, led by volunteer doctors Dr. Leila Naidas and Dr. Alma Madayag of the Fabella Medical Center, along with Mr. Alex Asuncion, Gloria Tiongson, Dory Arelito and Boyet Caasi of the PCS staff, screened more than 140 poor community residents with one found positive for breast cancer. The patient is now being helped by GMA Kapuso Foundation for her treatment.
