BDS (Manchester), General Dentist
Dr Michael J Shortt is a male General Dentist.
Michael grew up in Northern Ireland, but after receiving his degree in Manchester and working in the UK for a few years he came to New Zealand in 2005 for a working holiday.
He enjoyed his time here so much that he returned in 2010, originally working on the west coast and finally settling in Otago.
Within the surgery he places a strong emphasis on informed consent, and work to make each patient aware of their options and the consequences of each one. He aims to help patients to keep a sense of control within the surgery, to reduce fear and anxiety, and to demystify dental procedures.
