His professional milestones include obtaining Fellowship (FCPS) in Surgery from Bangladesh College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1982 and a further Fellowship in Surgery (FRCS Ed) from the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh, UK in 1994.

Prof. Ali established Bangladesh's first Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery department at BIRDEM General Hospital, Dhaka, in 1999.

Driven by the preventability of most liver diseases, he spearheaded organized efforts in Bangladesh for their prevention. This dedication led to the founding of the National Liver Foundation of Bangladesh (NLFB) in 1999, a charitable institution dedicated to preventing, treating, educating, and researching liver diseases. Prof. Ali and NLFB actively engaged in controlling viral hepatitis in Bangladesh and represented the country in policymaking on the Regional Strategy for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis in the South East Asia region.
