It depends on your circumstances. If all of your income is taxed through PAYE and your affairs are simple, you may not need ongoing accounting support. However, doctors with self-employment income from locum work, private consultations, medico-legal reports or a private practice almost always have filing obligations, and an accountant can help make sure income is reported correctly, allowable expenses are claimed, and nothing is overlooked. Doctors with partnership income, a limited company, or a mix of NHS and private earnings typically benefit most.
Yes. This is one of the most common situations we deal with. Your NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, while private income is usually reported through Self Assessment, and the two interact — for example, payments on account and the tax already deducted from your salary both affect what you ultimately owe. We prepare the return, calculate the position and explain what it means so there are no surprises.
Locum work is generally treated as self-employment, which means expenses incurred wholly and exclusively for the purposes of that work may be allowable. Typically this can include medical indemnity, professional subscriptions, relevant training and CPD, specialist equipment, and travel and mileage to temporary workplaces. The detail matters — travel between home and a permanent workplace is treated differently from travel to temporary sites, so it is worth keeping clear records and taking advice on your specific pattern of work.
In many cases these are allowable professional expenses, either as a deduction against self-employment income or, for some employment-related costs, as a claim against your employment income. The exact treatment depends on whether the cost relates to your employed or self-employed work and on your individual circumstances, so we review them alongside your other expenses rather than assuming a standard answer.
There is no universal answer. Incorporation can be worth considering where you have substantial private or consultancy income and want to control how and when profits are extracted, but it brings additional obligations including annual accounts, Corporation Tax returns, payroll and potentially VAT. For many doctors, remaining self-employed or operating through a partnership is more straightforward. We look at your income levels, pension position and plans before recommending anything.
Yes. We can set up and maintain bookkeeping, prepare management accounts, run payroll for practice staff and deal with VAT registration and returns where your turnover requires it. Good bookkeeping also makes your year-end accounts and tax return considerably easier, and gives you a clearer view of how the practice is performing during the year.
Contributions to the NHS Pension Scheme and any private pension arrangements can have tax implications, and for higher earners there may be wider considerations around contribution limits and the interaction with your total income. These are areas where regulated financial advice is often appropriate, but we factor pension-related information into your tax planning and flag where a specialist adviser should be involved.
Yes, changing accountants is usually straightforward. We handle the handover with your existing adviser, obtain the information we need and confirm what records you should provide, including details of your income sources, expenses and any outstanding filings. The first step is a conversation about your circumstances so we can confirm the services that suit you and how the transition will work.
