I had both knees replaced in summer of 2017 by Dr. Ali. While everything was fine for 2 years, spring of 2019 I started having stiffness, pain and locking up in my right knee. After much research, I found that when he had replaced both knee joints, he neglected to refinish the underside of the knee caps, just keeping the original surfaces. I have severe arthritis so I am at a loss why he would not refinish those surfaces as well. The option to finish or not finish was not even discussed. As a result of this in June 2020 they had to go back in at a cost of another $40,000 to refinish the right knee cap. My left knee is now not far behind at another additional cost of around $40,000 not to mention the recovery times and the hit to my morale over the additional surgeries. While his skills might be good, Please question his judgment and ability or desire to share information with you.Report

I saw Dr. Ali in 2013 for a frozen shoulder - no injury, it just suddenly happened but was inconvenient & painful. Dr Ali said that it would resolve by itself, probably in about a year, but physical therapy might shorten the recovery. He said that the good news was that he had never seen a recurrence of spontaneous frozen shoulder in the same arm, so once I healed, that would be it! He wrote me an RX for physical therapy but noted it was at my option. Follow-up visit with him also were optional, though I was free to make future appointments if I had problems or concerns.Report
I liked that. No pushing for surgery, injections, PT at his practice (I went to a PT place close to my home, more convenient), or multiple follow-up visits. I found the PT copay at our nearby Athletico to be VERY expensive so after my first shocker bill, I reduced the # of visits drastically, noted the exercises, and then continued on my own. As Dr. Ali predicted, the frozen shoulder went away on its own (took about half a year for me), and it never came back.
