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.

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.

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.

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.

FAQs About Medical Accountants

Our support typically covers Self Assessment, annual accounts, bookkeeping, payroll and tax planning, with VAT assistance where it applies to your circumstances. Medical practice accounting and Corporation Tax work can also be included if your structure requires it. Because every medical professional's situation differs, we confirm the exact scope with you before work begins.

We work with doctors, GPs, medical consultants, locum doctors, private practitioners and medical practice owners. This includes both employed and self-employed medical professionals, as well as those with a combination of NHS and private income. If you are unsure whether your circumstances fit, a short conversation is usually enough to clarify things.

Yes, this is a common situation and one we deal with regularly. The key is keeping each income stream accurately recorded so your Self Assessment return reflects the full picture. How each element is treated depends on your individual circumstances, so we review your position before advising.

Many medical professionals do need to file a return, particularly where you have self-employment income, locum earnings, untaxed private income or higher-rate income that HMRC has not fully taxed. Whether a return is required depends on your specific circumstances. We can review your position and manage the filing and deadlines on your behalf if needed.

Commonly considered expenses include professional subscriptions, medical indemnity cover, and certain costs relating to your work, but the treatment of each item depends on individual circumstances and how it relates to your professional activity. We help you identify what may be allowable and make sure your records support any claim. This reduces the risk of errors or queries from HMRC later.

Yes. We can maintain your bookkeeping throughout the year so your records stay accurate and your year-end accounts are straightforward to prepare. For medical practices with employees, we can also handle payroll and the associated reporting obligations. This keeps routine administration off your desk and leaves you free to focus on patient care.

We can discuss whether a sole trader, partnership or limited company arrangement suits your situation, and how that may affect your tax position over time. VAT registration and treatment depend on your turnover, services and individual circumstances, so any guidance is given after reviewing your specific position. Where relevant, we also assist with ongoing VAT compliance.

Getting started usually involves a short initial conversation about your work, income sources and current accounting arrangements. If you are moving from another accountant, we can help coordinate the handover of information so the transition is smooth. From there, we agree how ongoing support will work and take things forward from your side.
