I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.Posted on Google![]()

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.Posted on Google![]()

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.Posted on Google![]()

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.Posted on Google![]()

For most healthcare clients it covers Self Assessment returns that combine employed income, private fees, locum or associate payments and rental income, plus the associated allowable expense claims. Where a practice or clinic trades through a limited company, it also includes annual accounts, Corporation Tax returns, confirmation statements and director responsibilities. Beyond compliance, healthcare accounting typically includes bookkeeping, payroll for practice staff, VAT advice where taxable supplies exist, management accounts and forward-looking tax planning around business structure, equipment purchases and profit extraction.
The sector is broad, and the accounting needs vary accordingly. We support GPs and hospital doctors, dentists and dental associates, pharmacists and pharmacy owners, nurses, carers, consultants, physiotherapists and other allied health professionals, as well as clinic owners, private practice partnerships and healthcare businesses that employ staff. Whether you are self-employed, in a partnership or running a limited company, the starting point is the same: understanding how your income arises and what that means for tax and compliance.
Yes. Private fees, locum shifts and associate payments are taxable and generally need to be reported through Self Assessment, even where tax has already been deducted at source on part of the income. The practical difficulty is usually making sure everything is captured — payslips, private invoices, bank receipts and any expenses directly connected to that work. If you have only recently started private work, it is worth reviewing the position before the filing deadline rather than after it.
Yes, and it is one of the more common reasons healthcare clients come to a specialist. NHS contract income and private treatment fees often need to be tracked separately for accounting, profitability and VAT purposes, even where they flow through the same bank account. Keeping that separation clear in the bookkeeping makes the year-end accounts more accurate and gives practice owners a better picture of which parts of the business are performing.
Common claims include professional body subscriptions, GMC, NMC or GDC registration fees, medical indemnity insurance, clinical equipment and its maintenance, specialist clothing and uniform laundering, professional training relevant to your existing role, and a reasonable proportion of home office or travel costs where the rules allow. What qualifies depends on your circumstances and how the income arises, so it is worth reviewing expenses with an accountant rather than assuming or over-claiming.
Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but that does not automatically mean the question is settled. Turnover thresholds still matter, and certain supplies — cosmetic or non-medical treatments, retail sales, goods, and some consultancy or staffing arrangements — may be standard rated. Practices with a mixture of exempt and taxable supplies can also face partial exemption calculations, which determine how much input VAT is recoverable. This is an area where getting the treatment right early avoids corrections later.
Yes. Bookkeeping can be maintained from your bank transactions, invoices, receipts and payment records, with clinical and business costs separated as they arise. Payroll covers practice staff such as receptionists, administrators, nurses and associates, including PAYE, National Insurance, pension auto-enrolment and real-time reporting. Taking these tasks on frees up time and reduces the risk of missed deadlines or errors in employer obligations.
It begins with a conversation about your circumstances — how you are structured, where your income comes from, whether you employ staff, and what you would like help with. From there we review your current position and agree the support that fits. Most of the work can be handled remotely through secure document sharing, calls and video meetings, which suits clinicians with limited time between sessions, and you will know who to contact whenever a question arises.
