Can an employer force you to get a doctors note for personal time?

That depends... If you have a contract, either personal or union, it may be spelled out what is required to take personal time. On the other hand, if you don't have any sort of formal agreement that covers these sorts of issues, then it would be up to the employer as to what would be required in order to be granted personal time. In any event, the conditions and requirements for personal time set out for you should be no different than those set out for others in the same work category as you.
