Not every doctor does. If all of your income is taxed through PAYE and you have no other earnings, your affairs may be relatively straightforward. But many doctors have complications that make professional support worthwhile — private practice or locum income, consultancy work, medicolegal fees, a partnership share, pension contributions to review, or simply a stack of professional expenses to claim. Where any of those apply, an accountant can help ensure your return is accurate and that legitimate claims aren't missed.
Locum income is usually treated as self-employment, which means registering with HMRC, keeping records of fees earned and expenses incurred, and reporting the profit through Self Assessment. Many locums also hold separate employment contracts, so both sets of income may need to be brought together on the same return. Mileage between sites, medical indemnity cover and professional subscriptions are common claims, but they depend on your specific circumstances and the quality of your records.
Yes. This is one of the most common situations we deal with. NHS earnings are typically taxed through PAYE, while private practice, locum or consultancy income is reported separately. The two need to be combined correctly on your Self Assessment return, and adjustments such as payments on account or changes to your tax code can follow. Getting the interaction right helps avoid unwelcome surprises later.
It depends on your circumstances. Expenses that may be relevant include medical indemnity insurance, professional body and registration subscriptions, certain training and continuing professional development costs, professional equipment, and business travel or mileage. The general principle is that an expense must be incurred wholly and exclusively for the purposes of your professional income, and you'll need records to support it. We can talk through what applies to you rather than working from a generic checklist.
There's no universal answer — it depends on your income levels, how much you work privately, your plans for the future and how a company structure would affect your overall position. A limited company brings its own obligations, including annual accounts, Corporation Tax and potentially payroll and VAT. For some doctors it's a sensible structure; for others, remaining a sole trader or working through a partnership is more appropriate. We can discuss the trade-offs based on your situation.
Many doctors won't need to register, because medical services are often exempt. However, VAT can become relevant in certain circumstances — for example where you provide non-exempt services, sell goods, or your taxable turnover crosses the registration threshold. It's worth reviewing rather than assuming, particularly if your work includes activities outside standard clinical services.
Yes. Accounting work is largely digital these days, and documents can be shared securely online. Many doctors prefer to handle things remotely around clinical commitments, while others value the option of in-person discussions. Either way, the service and the attention to detail remain the same.
Changing accountants is usually simpler than people expect. We'll ask for some basic information about your current position, then liaise with your existing accountant to obtain the records we need — professional clearance is standard practice. Once everything is transferred, we'll review your affairs and take over the relevant filings. You don't need to manage the handover yourself.
