doesn’t matter what the laws are , if they want you fired they will find a way . I would cancel and go to the meeting and give them a detailed list of all your physio appointments for the future

in at will employment, you employer doesn’t have to do anything beside pay you for work performed. This means that there is no duty on the employer to accommodate your doctors appointments.

I think you are entitled to go, you can get minutes of the meeting. And it generally depends on how nice the company/your boss is

Your work have a duty to let you attend any drs appointments. If you are in the uk look up your rights on the net.
