Not every doctor needs specialist help, but many benefit from it. Doctors often have income from more than one source, such as NHS salary, private fees, locum work or consultancy, and each element needs to be reported correctly. A specialist accountant can help you understand which professional expenses are allowable, keep your records in order, and file your Self Assessment accurately. If your affairs are genuinely simple and you are comfortable handling them, general support may be enough, but complexity tends to grow over a medical career.
Your NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, but self-employment or private income generally needs to be reported through Self Assessment. The return brings your income sources together so your overall tax position can be calculated, and any tax already paid through PAYE is taken into account. The exact outcome depends on your total income, your expenses and your individual circumstances, so it is worth reviewing how your income sources are recorded before the filing deadline.
Commonly considered expenses include medical indemnity insurance, professional body subscriptions, and training or continuing professional development costs, along with certain equipment and travel costs. Whether a particular expense is allowable depends on factors such as whether it was incurred wholly and exclusively for your work and whether you are employed, self-employed or both. Employed doctors face tighter rules than self-employed ones on some costs, so it is worth checking your position rather than assuming.
Locum work is usually treated as self-employment, which means you need to record income and expenses carefully and report the profit through Self Assessment. You may also need to consider whether registering for VAT is required, depending on the nature and level of your work. Keeping a clear record of shifts, travel, agency fees and professional costs throughout the year makes the return far simpler and reduces the risk of missing something important.
There is no single answer that suits every doctor. Sole trader status is straightforward, partnerships are common in general practice, and a limited company can suit some private practitioners and consultants. The right structure depends on your income level, how you work, whether you have business partners, and your wider financial plans. Because the tax and administrative implications differ, it is worth reviewing your structure periodically as your career develops.
Yes. Alongside Self Assessment, we can support with bookkeeping so your records stay current, payroll where you employ staff or pay yourself through a company, VAT registration and returns where relevant, annual accounts, Corporation Tax, management accounts and partnership accounts. Which of these you need depends on how your medical work is structured, and we can help you work out what is actually required.
Yes, many doctors prefer to handle their accounting remotely, sharing documents and communicating by email, phone or video call at times that fit around clinics and on-call commitments. Working remotely does not reduce the level of support you receive; what matters is that your records reach us in good time and that we understand your circumstances clearly. If you would rather meet in person, that can be discussed when you get in touch.
Changing accountants is usually more straightforward than doctors expect. Once you decide to move, we can contact your existing accountant to request the relevant records and information, and handle the handover on your behalf where possible. It helps to have your most recent accounts, tax return and bookkeeping records available, but we can guide you through what is needed. The aim is to make the transition as smooth as possible without disrupting your filing deadlines.
