I sleep for 12 hours and i am still exhausted. are there any tests i can do and what type of dr do i see for this ?

Fatigue : Start with your Primary Care Doctor. Fatigue and exhaustion can be caused by more than lack of sleep. A History/Exam can reveal causes like Allergies, Heart Disease, Depression. Blood tests can reveal causes like anemia, thyroid dysfunction, Rheumatoid arthritis, Diabetes and infections (mono). Many of these causes are also very treatable and will allow you to feel better quickly
