He qualified as a doctor in 2005 after successfully completing an MBChB in medicine at the distinguished University of Baghdad. He moved to the UK and started training as a junior doctor in 2007, which allowed him to go on to obtain a master's degree in urology in 2013 from the University College London.

He started his urological training at St James Hospital in Leeds and subsequently undertook a fellowship at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. During his fellowship, he studied the role of MRI in the diagnosis of prostate cancer which is now the main method of prostate cancer diagnosis. Furthermore, he completed 5 years of higher urological training at the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Deanery by completing the FRSC Urol exam in 2017.

Upon his appointment as a consultant at the outstanding Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust in October 2017, Mr Ali was responsible for managing the bladder cancer services in the trust. In the past 5 years, Mr Ali has impressively introduced multiple new cutting-edge technologies in the management of bladder cancer. He introduced the use of radiofrequency-induced hyperthermia treatment for high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, and the use of laser in removing bladder cancer lesions with minimal blood loss. In addition, he regularly trains more junior urologists in using modern technologies in the diagnosis and treatment of bladder cancer.

After the COVID pandemic, Mr Ali started a new mobile service to help other Trusts in the UK deal with their long wait in treating urological cancers. He regularly undertakes and trains doctors in prostate diagnostic procedures. He uses the fusion method to accurately diagnose prostate cancer using the precision point technique. This ensures accurate diagnosis of the type and grade of prostate cancer with minimal side effects, such as infection and pain.

He has been involved in multiple successful programmes at the trust which involve simulation training.
