It depends on your circumstances. A doctor with a single salaried NHS post and no other income may have relatively little to file, although a Self Assessment return may still be needed for certain reasons. Where things get more involved, such as private practice fees, locum income, consultancy work, multiple employments or a GP partnership, an accountant can help ensure income is declared correctly, legitimate expenses are claimed and deadlines are met. It is also common for doctors to be unaware of reliefs or pension interactions that affect their position.
Your NHS salary is normally taxed through PAYE, while private fees, locum income and similar earnings usually need to be reported through Self Assessment. We bring the figures together, reconcile them with your PAYE information, account for NHS pension contributions where relevant, and include allowable expenses connected to your private or additional work. The aim is a return that reflects your full position rather than just the income that has not been taxed at source.
Yes. Locum work can be arranged in several ways: some engagements are paid through PAYE, while others involve invoicing for your services. That distinction affects how income is reported, what expenses can be claimed and whether registration for VAT becomes a consideration. We look at each arrangement individually, help you keep track of payments across multiple contracts, and make sure your returns and records are consistent with how you are actually engaged.
Common examples include medical indemnity cover, GMC and royal college subscriptions, professional development and training relevant to your existing work, specialist equipment, and business travel or mileage. Whether a cost is allowable depends on factors such as whether you are employed or self-employed, whether the expense is wholly and exclusively for your work, and whether you have already been reimbursed. We review your outgoings and confirm what can properly be claimed rather than applying a blanket list.
There is no single answer. A limited company can suit some doctors with substantial private or consultancy income, while others are better served as a sole trader or through a partnership. Contractual arrangements matter too, particularly where off-payroll working rules may apply to engagements with NHS bodies or other organisations. We can review your income levels, contracts and personal circumstances and explain the practical and tax implications of each option before you commit to a structure.
GP partners typically need partnership accounts, profit share calculations, capital account records and individual tax returns that reflect partnership income alongside any other earnings. Practice-level matters such as expenses, drawings and pension contributions also come into play. We prepare the relevant accounts and returns, and can work alongside practice managers or existing bookkeeping arrangements so the information flows accurately into your personal tax position.
Yes. Many doctors prefer to handle everything remotely, and we can work through secure document sharing, email and calls arranged around your rota. If you are moving from another accountant, we can contact them for the information we need, subject to your authorisation, and take over the ongoing filings and records with as little disruption as possible. It helps to have your most recent accounts, returns and bookkeeping records available, but we can guide you through what is needed.
Typically we ask for details of your employment and self-employment, recent payslips or P60 information, any NHS pension statements, records of private or locum income, expense receipts and mileage logs, and copies of previous accounts or tax returns if you have them. If some records are missing or disorganised, that is not a barrier; part of the initial review is working out what needs to be reconstructed or improved going forward.
