In Fraylich v. Maimonides Hosp. (251 A.D.2d at 251), the Appellate Division, First Department, affirmed the trial court's determination that defendants were not required to produce copies of documents relating to a private interview with plaintiff's treating physician or to refrain from any such further interviews. The Court stated (at 251): "We are in accord with the Second and Third Departments that the prohibition against the defendant in a medical malpractice action interviewing the plaintiff's treating physicians without a court order or the plaintiff's consent is limited to the pretrial stage of the action, . . . not the situation here, where the offending interview was conducted after the note of issue was filed."
