Biography:
Dr. Langley joined Carolina Asthma and Allergy Center in 2013. She is a native Charlottean and graduate of Myers Park High School, where she completed the International Baccalaureate Program and was active in clubs and sports. She then headed to Winston-Salem, where she graduated magna cum laude from Wake Forest University with a BS in biology. She earned her status as a “Double Deacon” when she stayed on for medical school at Wake Forest School of Medicine. She completed Pediatrics Residency at Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt University, followed by Allergy/Immunology Fellowship, also in Nashville, Tennessee.

Dr. Langley was drawn to the field of allergy because she is an allergy sufferer herself. She was also intrigued by the complex immune system since her first undergraduate immunology class and has special interest in immunodeficiency and food allergy.

Having children with multiple allergic conditions, including food and environmental allergies, eczema, and eosinophilic esophagitis has given her a new perspective on the allergic condition. She is passionate about providing patients and families with the education and tools they need to keep their children safe and healthy, while maintaining a high quality of life.

During fellowship training, Dr. Langley studied exhaled nitric oxide in children with asthma, and she has presented her work locally and nationally. She has publications in several peer-reviewed journals, including Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology: In Practice.

Dr. Langley serves as a preceptor and lecturer for family medicine and pediatric residents. She is a member of ACAAI, AAAAI, and local medical societies and serves on the medical advisory board at her church. She supports the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Alzheimer’s Association in annual fundraisers.

Outside of work, she enjoys yoga, hiking, skiing, traveling, and spending time with her husband, Mercer, her daughters, Molly and Anna, and her two dogs, Lucy and Riley.
