I would be vague about it, and get a vague letter from your doctor as well. Saying something like, I have a medical condition that I need to seek treatment for, and I need to do it on such day per week. I would really like to work with you so this doesn't affect my hours and work schedule, but I would really appreciate you working with me so I can make my appointments. And if they need back up from a doctor, you could get a vague letter that says you are indeed in a treatment appointment one day per week.

It honestly shouldn't be such a big deal. If they want more specifics about your condition, I would just say that you aren't really comfortable sharing the specific diagnosis but are happy to get a letter from your doctor saying you are receiving treatment.

Good luck,
