Umair Ali

Medical school: Ayub Medical College, Abbottabad, Pakistan  

Residency: Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan 

Favorite aspect of nephrology: The way we look at all the aspects of the patient and can communicate with other teams with confidence and you know how to treat patients 

Outside of medicine: Love to travel and to watch sports. Know how to play chess very well 

Why I like UAMS: UAMS is like a family to me. The professionalism, care and respect which I have from UAMS is exceptional. The faculty here is excellent, the way they teach makes one fall in love with medicine.      

Favorite activity in Arkansas: The outdoor activities are the best. Whether these are trails, national parks or water fun at water parks. Weather here is not harsh in winters. Actually you can enjoy Arkansas if you love nature and outside activities. 

Favorite restaurant in Little Rock: Taziki, Popeye’s, Taj Mahal, Dominos and I-HOP   

If I weren’t a nephrologist I would be: Hmmm, actually I am the one who did cardiology and now doing nephrology so it’s a tough question for me. I think nephrology suits me more now.
