John Parkinson was born in Lismore, New South Wales, Australia, on 25th May 1972 to David Parkinson (fishmonger) and Jacquelyne Lee (primary school teacher). He spent his early childhood in the small fishing village of Evans Head, New South Wales; a coastal resort town surrounded by national parks. He spent the years 1984-89 at the boarding school, Farrer Memorial Agricultural High School, Tamworth, New South Wales; despite having no background or interest in agriculture. It was merely due to the school's selective status. John attended the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia from 1990-1994 and graduated with a Bachelor of Dental Science. Until late 1997 he practised dentistry in Northern New South Wales and South East Queensland. In November 1997 he migrated to the United Kingdom, and first held a position as a dentist in Abingdon, Oxfordshire until May 1998. at that period he relocated to Shrewsbury, Shropshire; and practised dentistry in Shropshire and Powys until June 2013.
