Meet the Doctor

After receiving his doctorate from Boston University Goldman School of Dental Medicine, Dr. Magiera went on to complete a GPR (General Practice Residency) at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine where he held a faculty position as Associate Clinical Professor in the Advanced Clinical Dentistry Dept. 

Since completing his studies in 1995, he has been practicing here in Western Massachusetts. He practiced in East Longmeadow and Amherst before opening his own practice in Agawam in 2002. 

Originally from Rhode Island, he met his wife and settled down in East Longmeadow to raise their twins, Emily, now a student at Syracuse University, and Daniel, now a Midshipman at The United States Naval Academy. They also have 2 rescue dogs, Dexter and HarleyBo. 

When he's not doing dentistry you can find him tickling the ivories of a piano, playing hockey, cheering as a spectator at a hockey or Patriots game or using one of his many telescopes to gaze at the stars.

Dr. Norton's practice philosophy is based on extreme excellence. 

Dr. Norton grew-up in Avon, Connecticut and attended Georgia Southern University where she graduated with high honors earning her undergraduate degree in Biology. She then received her doctorate from University of Connecticut School of Dental Medicine and went on to complete a general practice residency at Saint Francis Hospital in Hartford, CT where was awarded Resident of the Year and the William Rieger Award for her outstanding performance in clinical and didactic dentistry. 

When Colleen is not practicing dentistry she enjoys skiing, hiking, attending sporting events, and spending time with friends, family and her cat, Jalapeno.
