Welcome!
​
​
HELLO!Â
I'M DR. MARIA SIMBRA.
I'm your coach, consultant, and principal at Dr. Maria ON Speaking, LLC.
For 19 years, I was the medical reporter at KDKA | CBS Pittsburgh. Before and during the early part of my TV news career I was a neurologist in private practice and academia with 15 years of caring for patients.
​
At CBS Pittsburgh, I reported on outbreaks, health and wellness, celebrity illnesses, and medical innovations. If you're a healthcare or life sciences professional, you may be called upon by the media to comment on these types of topics.
​
With my background and experience, I can help you find your message and use powerful stories to resonate with the people you want to reach. I guide my clients with personal attention to be more effective speakers on camera, on microphone, and at the podium.
