Overview

Shenton grew up in rural New Zealand, but after his family moved to “the big smoke” he completed his schooling and medical training in Auckland, followed by ophthalmology training in the Auckland and Waikato regions. He has been fortunate to be the recipient of multiple ophthalmology prizes and scholarships in his undergraduate and postgraduate years, which helped him and his wife, Nola, get through their two-year stint in London. They now have a young son Callum, who keeps them on their toes and takes up most of his free time! Outside of work he enjoys keeping physically active with hobbies such as tennis, golf, weight-training and snowboarding.
