Not every doctor does, but many benefit from one. If your only income is a single NHS salary taxed through PAYE and you have no additional earnings, your tax affairs may be straightforward. The picture changes quickly once you have private fees, locum or consultancy income, a partnership profit share, a limited company, or pension contributions that need reviewing. In those situations, an accountant can help ensure the return is complete, that allowable expenses are claimed correctly, and that deadlines are met. Even salaried doctors sometimes want a second pair of eyes on their position, particularly when their circumstances change.
NHS salary is usually taxed through PAYE and reported on the return, while private fees, locum income and consultancy earnings are typically self-employed or miscellaneous income. We collect the figures from your payslips, invoices, bank statements and any records you hold, then report each source correctly and make sure expenses and pension contributions are attributed to the right stream. Because the interaction between employment and self-employment can affect the tax due, it is worth reviewing the overall position rather than treating each source in isolation.
Locum doctors generally need a clear record of every assignment, the income received and the expenses incurred in carrying out that work. Common considerations include medical indemnity cover, professional subscriptions, travel and mileage for legitimate business journeys, and equipment or training costs, though whether each item is allowable depends on the facts. Keeping invoices, receipts and a mileage log through the year makes the tax return much easier to prepare and reduces the risk of missing something.
There is no universal list, because allowability depends on your work and the purpose of the cost. Costs that doctors often ask about include medical indemnity, professional subscriptions, training and professional development, specialist equipment, and travel and mileage for business journeys. Some items are clearly allowable, others only in certain circumstances, and personal or commuting costs generally are not. We review your spending and explain what can be claimed and why, so your return reflects the rules rather than guesswork.
It depends on your income level, how you work and your wider plans. A sole trader arrangement is simpler to run, while a limited company can suit some doctors with substantial private, locum or consultancy income, subject to the additional reporting, payroll and accountancy obligations that come with it. There can also be tax considerations around extracting profits and pension planning. Business structure advice is specific to your circumstances, so we look at the numbers and the practical implications before recommending a route.
VAT treatment in healthcare is not straightforward, and some medical services are exempt while others are not. Whether you need to register depends on your turnover and the nature of the services you provide, including any non-medical work such as cosmetic or advisory services. If registration is required, we can handle the returns and set up records that make the ongoing administration manageable.
Yes to both. Much of the accounting process can be handled remotely using digital records and secure document sharing, with conversations by phone or video at times that suit your rota. If you already have an accountant, changing over is usually a matter of us contacting them for the relevant information and records, then picking up your accounting from an agreed point. We will talk you through what is needed so the transition is orderly.
Start with a conversation about your circumstances. Tell us how you work — salaried, locum, private practice, partnership or a combination — where your income comes from, and what you need help with, whether that is a Self Assessment, bookkeeping, payroll, VAT, annual accounts or general tax planning. From there we will outline what is required, what information we need from you, and how the arrangement will work. If your circumstances are unusual, we will say so and explain the options rather than offer a generic answer.
