Dr. Ali completed his undergraduate studies at the University of North Texas where he graduated Summa Cum Laude. After which, Dr. Ali attended medical school at University of North Texas Health Science Center. He then completed his Internal Medicine Residency and Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship at Thomas Jefferson University – Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware.

Following this, Dr. Ali completed his Advanced Heart Failure & Transplant Cardiology Fellowship at Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania/Christiana Hospital before joining the Heart Failure and Transplant Team at Newark Beth Israel Medicine Center.

Outside of medicine, Dr. Ali enjoys spending time with his family, keeping up with formula 1 racing and soccer leagues. He is also an avid gamer.
Philosophy of Care:
I firmly believe in mutual respect and understanding. Throughout my training, I have always emphasized and prioritized communication with both patients and their families. It is my personal belief that laying out a clear treatment plan guided by patient wishes and evidence-based medicine leads to the best outcomes and helps build lasting trust between patient and provider.
