It depends on your circumstances. A doctor with a single salaried NHS post and straightforward tax affairs may manage without one, though there can still be benefits in reviewing expenses and pension implications. Once you add private fees, locum shifts, consultancy income, partnership profit share or a limited company, the reporting becomes considerably more involved, and professional support tends to be worthwhile. An accountant can help ensure everything is reported accurately, that allowable expenses are claimed, and that deadlines are met without last-minute stress.
Yes. Bringing both together correctly is one of the most common reasons doctors seek help. NHS employment income and private medical income are generally reported in the same Self Assessment return but in different sections, and the way each is recorded matters. We gather the relevant figures, check that expenses are allocated sensibly, and calculate the tax due — including any payments on account that may apply. If your private income varies significantly year to year, we will also flag how that affects your position.
Potentially allowable costs typically include medical indemnity insurance, professional body and registration subscriptions, required training and continuing professional development, specialist equipment or clothing used for work, and travel and mileage for business journeys such as travelling between sites or to a temporary placement. Home office costs can sometimes be claimed where administrative work is done at home. Whether a particular cost qualifies depends on the specifics, and records need to support the claim, so it is worth discussing your situation before assuming an expense is or is not deductible.
It can. Working through your own limited company brings obligations such as annual accounts, Corporation Tax, payroll and potentially VAT, alongside your personal tax return. It may also bring off-payroll working and IR35 considerations into play, particularly for locum and consultancy arrangements with NHS bodies or agencies. The right structure depends on how you work in practice and your longer-term plans, so we review the detail before advising on whether a company remains appropriate.
NHS pension contributions are generally deducted from pay, which affects your taxable income and take-home position. Where income is high or varies between years, annual allowance considerations can lead to additional tax charges, and this can become complicated where private income sits alongside pensionable NHS earnings. We help by looking at your total income picture and highlighting where professional pension or tax advice may be needed — pension scheme rules themselves are usually best confirmed with your scheme or a regulated adviser.
VAT depends on what you supply and how much you earn from relevant taxable activities. Many purely medical services are exempt from VAT, but not everything connected with a medical business is — cosmetic work, certain products, some consultancy and non-medical services can be treated differently. Registration is compulsory once taxable turnover passes the relevant threshold, and voluntary registration can sometimes be beneficial. We review your activities and income to establish where you stand.
GP partners typically need partnership accounts and a partnership tax return, plus individual Self Assessment returns reflecting each partner's profit share. Drawings, capital accounts and profit-sharing arrangements all need to be recorded and understood, and the accounts feed directly into each partner's personal tax position. We also help partners understand how changes in the practice — new partners, retiring partners, or changes to the practice structure — affect the numbers.
Yes, working remotely is straightforward for most doctors, and many prefer it given busy rotas and shift patterns. Documents can be shared electronically, and meetings can be arranged to suit your schedule. If you are currently with another accountant, switching is usually simpler than people expect: we can request the information we need, confirm the handover, and take over the relevant filings. If you would like to discuss your circumstances first, get in touch and we can talk through what is involved.
