It depends on your circumstances. A doctor whose only income is a salaried NHS role taxed entirely through PAYE may have relatively simple affairs, although Self Assessment can still be required in certain situations. Once you add private fees, locum shifts, consultancy work, partnership profits, rental income or higher-rate pension considerations, the picture becomes more complex, and professional support usually helps with accuracy, allowable expenses and deadline management.
Yes. Combining taxed NHS salary with untaxed private or locum income is one of the situations we deal with most often. We bring both strands together in your Self Assessment, check that professional expenses are claimed correctly against the right income, and make sure any payments on account or higher-rate liabilities are anticipated rather than discovered at the last minute.
Common claims include medical indemnity and defence union subscriptions, GMC and specialist registration fees, professional body and royal college memberships, required training and continuing professional development, specialist equipment, and work-related travel or mileage. Not every cost qualifies, and the rules around travel between sites and permanent versus temporary workplaces can be nuanced, so it is worth checking before you claim.
Locum work often means income arrives without tax deducted, or with tax deducted under PAYE depending on the arrangement, and there is usually no employer covering your expenses. That makes record keeping particularly important: shift dates, locations, travel, agency fees, indemnity cover and pension contributions all affect your final tax position. We can help you structure your records and prepare an accurate return.
There is no universal answer. Sole trader or partnership arrangements are common for private practice and consultancy, while a limited company can suit some doctors with substantial private income — but incorporation brings additional filing, payroll and Corporation Tax obligations. The right choice depends on your income levels, how many people you work with, and your longer-term plans, so we look at the numbers before recommending anything.
Many medical services are exempt from VAT, but not all activities are. If you provide non-medical services, sell goods, run a dispensary or provide certain report-writing or cosmetic treatments, VAT registration thresholds and rules may apply. We can review your activities and advise on whether registration is required and how to handle it if so.
We are happy to work with doctors remotely where that suits your schedule, using secure document sharing and calls to keep things moving. Many medical professionals prefer this because of shift patterns and limited free time, and it works well for clients across different locations.
It is usually simpler than people expect. We start by understanding your current arrangements and income sources, then request professional clearance from your existing accountant and obtain your records and filing history. From there we review your position and put the appropriate support in place. Letting us know early in the tax year generally gives the smoothest transition.
