str() is your friend. It tells you about the structure of any R object, from which you can usually glean what you need to know to get what you want. It is often useful to use it on summary(object) rather than on the object, as the summary method for an (S3) classed object often contains what you're looking for.
Less generally, names() and as.list() can sometimes get you what you want also. Alternatively, check the summary.coxph() code (survival:::summary.coxph, as it's hidden in the namespace). It is clear there how to get what you want, either direct from the fitted object or from the summary.coxph object.
