Born in London in 1860, the only child of Buxton Shillitoe, FRCS. His father had one of the chief general practices in the City of London, when the merchants and business men still lived in the town. Arthur Shillitoe was educated at a City school and at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where he graduated MB BCh without taking a Tripos. He then went to Guy's Hospital, and was for a short time an assistant demonstrator of anatomy. He joined his father in practice in the Old Jewry, was appointed registrar to the London Lock Hospital in 1894, became surgeon to the male out-patient department in 1897, surgeon in 1904, and consulting surgeon on his resignation in 1919. He also acted as medical officer to the Atlas Assurance Company, to the London and County Bank, and to the London Salvage Corps. He retired from practice in 1927 and lived at Fairhaven, Salcombe, where he died suddenly and unmarried on 22 June 1935.
