“Changing reproductive healthcare isn’t just about policy—it’s about culture, trust, and who gets heard. We Deserve More is a powerful example of how we can reach people in new ways, validate their experiences, and build confidence to demand better care. Nikki makes clear that patients’ voices matter—and that expanding who tells these stories is how real change happens.”

—Mini Timmaraju, President & CEO, Reproductive Freedom for All

“We Deserve More truly captures how medical care can retraumatize us when compassion and consent are missing. Survivors already carry a lasting trauma; we deserve better care.”

—Hadley Duvall, survivor and activist

“There's no question that our healthcare system is failing women when it comes to reproductive care, and this book opens your eyes to why you deserve so much better. Nikki weaves together her personal journey with hard truths about the system, drawing on her years of experience as a PA-C in women's health. What makes this book special is how she balances the big picture (calling out the systemic problems that hold us back) with practical advice you can use the next time you see your gynecologist. Her real-world experiences give weight to every recommendation, making this both an eye-opening critique and an empowering resource.”

—Bayo Curry-Winchell, MD, MS, board-certified family medicine physician and health advocate

“From over a decade of clinical experience as an OB/Gyn Physician Assistant, Nikki Sapiro Vinckier paints us a picture we cannot look away from— describing just how broken our reproductive health system is and the daily harms that system enacts on both patients and providers. Importantly, she compels us to go beyond anger and step into action, with concrete strategies to reshape and retake our reproductive health care into our own hands.”

—Latona Giwa, Executive Director, Repro TLC

“We Deserve More is the book I wish I had read decades ago.  It should be on the reading list for every book club. It should be part of the curriculum for every Women and Gender’s Studies program.  It should be required reading for every medical student. This is the book I will gift to my friends (male and female).  This is a book for people who give a damn about women.”

—Kristin Cravens Hutton

“This book should be required reading from an insider whose expertise tells us what's broken about the reproductive health system, and what we can do about it. It is as important as Our Bodies, Ourselves was when it was released in the 1970s. It empowers all of us to speak up and take our healthcare seriously when the system does not.”

—Loretta J. Ross, Reproductive Justice Activist, author, professor, and Co-Founder of SisterSong

“The fight over reproductive healthcare is deeply personal, and all of us, men included, have a stake in whether or not people have access to the care they need. This book provides a comprehensive guide for navigating a system that creates endless barriers to that essential care, including how men like us can fully support the women in our life navigating those barriers on a daily basis.”

—Oren Jacobson, Men4Choice Founder and Senior Advisor

“In We Deserve More, Nikki Sapiro Vinckier uses her experience as a clinician within the reproductive healthcare system to help patients effectively navigate it. It is a wonderful resource for anyone seeking support through the complexities of provider relationships, insurance frustrations, online misinformation, and much more.”

—Becca Rea-Tucker, author of The Abortion Companion: An Affirming Handbook for Your Choice and Your Journey (2026)

"This book is both a wake-up call and an essential resource. Nikki Sapiro Vinckier shows readers what’s broken in reproductive healthcare and how to advocate for the care we all deserve.”

—Pamela Merritt, Executive Director, Med Students for Choice
