I am 13 and I haven't started my period yet. Is this normal? Should I go see a doctor?

Women ( girls) mature at different rates and times. Do you have a older women, like a mom or a aunt that you can talk to.

Don't worry, some girls don't start their period until they're 16, although if you still don't have it at that age I would see your doctor.
Everyone is different and mature's at different times. Don't be in such a hurry. Trust me, once you do get your period you'll long for the days you didn't. You have a life time of periods ahead of you, enjoy the stage you're in right now, nature will take its course when it's good and ready.
If you're really worried talk to a female adult, that you trust, about your concerns, but let me assure you, there is nothing wrong with you.
Good luck.

I agree 100%. It can really help to talk to women in your family. See how old they were when they started. I wouldn't worry about this for now, everyone is different. :)
