Specialist Bio

Dr. Ali, who is Board Certified in Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, earned his undergraduate degree at Baylor University in Waco, TX and subsequent Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine at A.T. Still University of Health Sciences. At the Texas Tech University Medical Center, he completed a residency in anesthesiology and a fellowship in pain medicine mentored by a world-renowned pain specialist, Dr. Miles Day.

Under the tutelage of Dr. Day, Dr. Ali honed his ability to tailor treatment plans to individuals. This is crucial because, although some patients may have similar issues, the circumstances around every patient’s life will vary. As an osteopathic physician, Dr. Ali takes a whole-body approach to treatment and care. Emphasis is placed on facilitating the body’s natural ability to heal. Thus, it is only natural that a patient’s environment, lifestyle, and tendencies be taken into account when determining the best course of action.

Dr. Ali emphasizes physical therapy and psychological aspects of pain in designing a treatment plan. These two aspects compliment his expert management of pain medicine and interventional therapy. Interventional therapy includes everything from epidural steroids to selected nerve ablation to spinal cord stimulation. Spinal cord stimulation is a highly effective therapy using a technology similar to noise cancellation headphones. We can literally block pain signals from reaching the brain.

In his free time, Dr. Ali enjoys spending time with his family and friends, and what little time remains is usually spent running baseline cuts and slip-screens on the basketball court or reading the works of Mitch Albom.
