About Me

I am a general surgeon and surgical oncologist at St. Luke's University Health Network. I am thrilled to be part of an organization with a patient-centered culture and a collaborative working environment. 

My professional goal has always been to establish a connection with my patients and to partner with them in order to determine the best management plan for their unique situation. I am passionate about patient advocacy and work to serve patients and their families by bringing a hardworking, passionate approach to their care.

I look forward to working on expanding the cancer care that is available to patients within the Carbon County region and to connecting patients to multidisciplinary, individualized care. 

I am originally from Langhorne, Pennsylvania and received my undergraduate education at Lehigh University, where I was a proud scholar athlete in the softball program. I obtained my medical degree from Jefferson Medical College in Philadelphia and completed my general surgery residency training at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. I went on to complete a complex general surgical oncology fellowship at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center in Buffalo.

Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, watching baseball and spending time with family and friends. My husband, Joseph Butash, MD, is an emergency medicine physician at St. Luke's Easton Campus. We are proud parents to our young son.

Received surprising news. After 23 years since first breast cancer diagnosis, Dr Butash explained her concern & reason for imaging. She & staff followed up on the findings appropriately. (I lived in a different county & outside of the St Lukes network during the first diagnosis & treatment).

Dr. Ali was seeing me at the Carbon campus. I think initially she was kind of consulting and giving her opinion. She became more involved and reached out to us via video more than once. She was an exceptionally patient, calm, knowledgeable and sincere doctor. I wish she was my primary care doctor. Nothing but excellent things to say about Dr. Ali.

01/20/2024
Dr. Butash is a Delite to visit. She is knowledgably, listens to your questions and gives you an answer I am very impressed with her manner in treating patients something that should be taught to other so called other professionals I have visited.

Dr. Ali Butash was excellent. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is kind, caring, knowledgeable and professional. I had a mass removed from my right breast and she was totally understanding of feelings and fears. I personally know 2 other of her patients that feel just as I do.
