If you are in the UK, then your doctor should not give this information under patient confidentiality guidelines upon initial contact. However, if your employer is really bothered, they could apply for a comprehensive employee medical report which may contain appointment dates etc.
If an employer compels you to go to the doctor during paid work hours, it is paid time. If hours exceed 40 in a workweek, non-exempt employees get overtime.
They can ask you to elaborate and even ask for a doctors note
Yes, if it's on going. In British Columbia, Canada when a person is off work for three days or more an employer can ask for a doctors note. It's best to get a doctors note if possible because the doctor will only tell the employer that you are being treated, but won't tell the employer what you are being treated for (patient/doctor confidentiality.)
It depends entirely on your employer. Most won't bother asking, but it's always best to have proof of the appointment - in case your boss thinks you're simply skiving off early !
a doctors appointment.
The NHS.
Yes, employers can send employees home for any reason satisfactory to the employer. Doctors have no power over employers, who OWN the jobs and set what work schedules they wish. One reason an injured employee might be sent home when a doctor assigns restriction is that the employer cannot provide work that meets those restrictions.
