Congrats on the new job!
I would approach it like you are thinking...let them know that you have a medical appointment you need to keep and that you are willing to use your lunch hour or work a little earlier or later to make up the missed time. Usually when you offer this up front it is no big deal. I don't think I'd give too much information until you get a feel for the place. Who knows? It might be really understable to everyone there. But I think keeping personal matters private at the beginning is always wise.
Can you move your appointments to the end of the day? It might be easier than leaving and coming back.
Good luck with this.
