I'd like to try a prescription appetite suppressant, what is usually required for an examination, etc. for this that i need to ask for from my doctor?

Weight loss: These drugs require an exam and check of blood pressure at the minimum to begin. Each has different side effect profiles so that will also be discussed at your visit. They are also usually only given one month at a time with f/u appointments necessary to refill the medications.
