Dr. Paul is also a New Jersey native who graduated from Albany Medical College in Albany, New York, with honors, placing in the top one-third of his class.

He went on to Mount Sinai School of Medicine’s Department of Neurosurgery to complete his fellowship in Neurological Surgery. Nicole is the mother of three sons, as the Saphire couple had two sons together. The five-member family lives together.

A Teenage Mother

Saphire was born in Scottsdale and comes from a family of lawyers, pharmacists, business owners, and store owners. Her mother is a professional psychotherapist, while her father is a lawyer. She wanted to make a difference in medicine as a professional doctor, so she set out on a path to become the family’s first medical doctor, only to run into roadblocks.

She became pregnant during her senior year of high school. While many people thought having a child so young would ruin her life, she took comfort in having the freedom to make her own decisions rather than being pushed to have an unsafe abortion.

“Fear and guilt dominated the stream of feelings I had upon discovering of my pregnancy as I began my senior year of high school,” Saphire wrote for Fox News in May 2018.

She decided to have her first child after much deliberation. Nick Pagoria, her son, was born in 2002 when she was 18 years old, just before she graduated from high school. She clarified to the Independent Women’s Forum in September 2020 that her decision to have a boy at such a young age had nothing to do with politics or religion.

Dr. Saphire went on to say that her decision was “based on emotion and a sense of duty,” and that if the same had occurred decades before, she could have had an unsafe abortion or disguised her pregnancy.

But, because it was not her case, she was grateful to be able to chose life for her son. On the other side, she continued to pursue her medical ambitions while raising a child. Her perseverance has paid off today.
