Some doctors with a single salaried role and straightforward affairs manage their own returns, but complexity tends to build quickly. Once you add private fees, locum work, consultancy income, a practice partnership or a limited company, the reporting, expense rules and timing get considerably more involved. An accountant can help ensure income is reported correctly, expenses are claimed appropriately and opportunities are not overlooked. Many doctors also value the reassurance that deadlines are being monitored on their behalf.
Commonly claimed items include medical indemnity and defence union subscriptions, professional body memberships, required training and CPD costs, specialist equipment and, in some cases, travel to temporary or temporary-ish workplaces such as locum assignments. What you can claim depends on whether the cost relates to employed or self-employed work, whether it was incurred wholly and exclusively for that work, and your individual circumstances. We review your spending and identify what is appropriate to claim.
Both sources generally need to be reported on your Self Assessment return. NHS salary is usually taxed through PAYE, so the key is making sure the figures are captured correctly and that any private fees, which typically have no tax deducted, are included in full. Where income has already been taxed at source, it should not be taxed twice. We reconcile the two so the return presents an accurate overall picture of your taxable income.
Not necessarily. Whether a limited company is beneficial depends on your level of earnings, how your engagements are structured, IR35 considerations and your wider financial plans. Some locums operate very successfully as sole traders, while others find a company offers advantages. This is a decision worth discussing in detail rather than assuming, because the administration, payroll and filing obligations differ significantly between structures.
Pension contributions can influence your tax position, and for doctors the interaction between NHS pension accrual, annual allowance rules and any private pension arrangements can be complex. The treatment depends on your total income, contribution levels and individual circumstances, so it is worth reviewing rather than relying on general guidance. We can factor pension considerations into your broader tax planning and highlight where specialist financial advice may be appropriate.
Yes. GP partners and practice owners have accounting needs that go beyond a personal tax return, including partnership accounts and profit allocations, practice bookkeeping, staff payroll and VAT where registration applies. We can support the practice side while also handling the individual partners' Self Assessment and related tax matters, so the numbers stay consistent across both.
It is usually more straightforward than doctors expect. We will need professional clearance from your existing accountant along with your prior returns, accounts and records, and we handle that correspondence for you. Once everything is in place, we review the position and confirm what is required going forward. If a deadline is approaching, it helps to make the switch sooner rather than later.
Many doctors prefer to work remotely, and that can function smoothly using secure document sharing and scheduled calls around clinical rotas and on-call commitments. If you would rather meet in person, that can also be arranged. Either way, the service is the same: organised records, clear explanations and timely submissions. If you are unsure what you need, a conversation about your circumstances is a sensible starting point.
