What this record establishes
The authenticated AAHKS directory lists this surgeon as a member, and CMS holds a provider record for this surgeon.
What still needs verification: hip and knee replacement fellowship training, board certification and current all-payer annual volume. An unmet criterion is never a finding against a surgeon: CMS publishes only the Medicare half of a practice, and a credential nobody has documented is unknown, not absent.
How each fact was established
Fellowship training not yet documented
A hip and knee replacement fellowship is not yet documented. The cited page, as a search result described it, does not mention one; the page itself has not been read by a person, and a fellowship a page does not mention is unknown, not absent.
Dr. Margolis' bio lists his medical degree from SUNY Downstate and orthopaedic surgery residency at USC/LA General Medical Center (2007) with no fellowship mentioned.

Years in practice
About 18 years, estimated from training dates. The estimate allows six years for residency and fellowship, which is the shortest path there is, so the real figure may be lower.

Joint replacement volume
CMS published no 2024 Original Medicare hip or knee replacement services under this NPI. That is not a finding of low volume: the file cannot answer the question for this surgeon.
Medicare participation: accepts Medicare assignment
The CMS Doctors & Clinicians file reports that this clinician accepts the Medicare-approved amount as payment in full.
CMS Medicare-listed practice: Permanente Medical Group Inc · San Jose, CA 95119.
AAHKS membership
Listed in the authenticated AAHKS member directory as Fellow Member.
Board certification
American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery certification is not covered by the retained dataset and has not been checked.
Is this your record?
A surgeon may correct their own page. Sign in as a physician, confirm the NPI on this record, and verify with a code texted to your cell phone. You can then correct the practice, fellowship and start-year fields, or ask for the page to come down. Corrections appear here as stated by you, beside what the public sources show.
Report an error in this record
Anyone may report an error: a patient, a practice, a colleague, or the surgeon. A person reads every report and checks it against a source before anything on the page changes. You can also write to privacy@sherlockhealth.ai.
This is a documented record, not a rating or a recommendation. It carries no stars, scores, ranks or badges. Every fact names its source and the date it was read; a fact nobody has documented reads “not yet documented,” which is a gap in the record and never a finding about the surgeon. Whether a surgeon is right for you is decided in an examination, by you and them.
