I highly recommend Imran to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable accountant. He helped me sort out a very complicated backlog of accounts and prepared my overdue tax returns with professionalism and attention to detail. Throughout the process, he was incredibly patient, took the time to answer all of my questions, and explained everything clearly. He guided me through each step and helped rectify issues that had built up over time, making what felt like an overwhelming situation much more manageable. I'm very pleased with the service I've received and truly appreciate his support. If you need help with your accounts or taxes, I would highly recommend Imran.Posted on Google![]()

I had a positive experience with Accotax. The work was completed promptly, my tax return was successfully filed, and I received a refund of overpaid tax. I found the cooperation efficient and helpful. Special thanks to Muhammad Saifullah for his assistance.Posted on Google![]()

We worked with a few different accountants before finally settling with Accotax, and we’re really glad we did. Their team is great. Abdul is responsive and easy to reach whenever I have a question, which makes a big difference. They take the time to understand how our business works and what our needs are. They are very knowledgeable, and when they don’t have the answer straight away, they take the time to look into it and get back to us quickly. Anum, who looks after our account on a day-to-day basis, including reconciling invoices and preparing the annual accounts, is amazing. She is professional, efficient, and follows the processes we have put in place together. She's also very quickin getting back to us whenever needed. We’re very happy to work with her and hope to continue doing so for as long as possible. Overall, Accotax has made our accounting experience much smoother and easier. We see them as a long-term partner as our business continues to grow. I would 100% recommend them.Posted on Google![]()

I have really impressed to date with all dealings with Accotax highly enough. From day one, they've made what can often be a complicated and stressful part of running a business feel straightforward and hassle-free. A special mention has to go to Anum, who has been friendly, incredibly responsive, and genuinely cares about providing the best possible service. No question is ever too much trouble, and she consistently goes above and beyond to make sure everything is dealt with efficiently. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for an accountant they can genuinely trust.Posted on Google![]()

It is the same core accounting work — bookkeeping, accounts, tax returns, payroll, VAT — but applied with an understanding of how healthcare income behaves. For a clinician, that might mean preparing a Self Assessment that correctly separates NHS salary, locum income and private fees, and identifying expenses such as indemnity cover, registration fees and CPD that are genuinely allowable. For a practice or clinic, it means producing accounts that reflect mixed income streams, handling payroll for clinical and admin staff, and advising on VAT where private and NHS work sit side by side.
You do not legally need one, but locum work creates exactly the kind of tax position a generalist can overlook. Income arrives from multiple sources across the year, expenses such as travel between sites, indemnity insurance and equipment are easy to miss, and payments on account can cause cash flow surprises if they are not planned for. A healthcare-focused accountant will also be alert to how locum earnings interact with NHS pension contributions and any employment you hold alongside them.
All sources are reported on one return, but each has to be recorded correctly. NHS employment income is normally reported from your P60, while private consultation fees, locum payments and other self-employed earnings are reported separately with the associated expenses. Keeping these streams clearly separated in your records throughout the year makes the return more accurate and much quicker to prepare. Payments on account also need to be considered, since a growing private income can push up the following January's bill.
It depends on your turnover and the nature of your services. Many healthcare services are exempt from VAT, but not all activities carried out by a clinic or practice fall into that category, and the position can differ between, for example, medical care, dispensing, cosmetic or non-medical services, and the sale of goods. Registration is compulsory once taxable turnover crosses the threshold, and voluntary registration can sometimes be beneficial. Because mixed supplies make this area less clear-cut, it is worth reviewing your specific income streams.
It depends on your role and how you are taxed, but commonly claimed items include professional indemnity and registration fees, revalidation and CPD costs, specialist equipment and uniforms, professional subscriptions, mileage for business travel between sites, and a proportion of home costs where you use part of your home for administration. Expenses must be wholly and exclusively for your work, and there are rules that differ between employment and self-employment, so accurate records and a quick review before filing are worthwhile.
There is no single right answer, and the best structure depends on profits, how many people are involved, your plans for growth and how you want to take money out of the business. Sole trader and partnership arrangements are simpler to run, while incorporation can offer different tax outcomes and limited liability, but brings additional compliance and payroll obligations as a director. As a practice takes on partners, hires staff or adds new services, the original structure may no longer be the most suitable.
Yes. We can process payroll for salaried clinicians, part-time administrative staff, reception teams and occasional workers, handle PAYE and National Insurance, issue payslips and deal with year-end reporting. Automatic enrolment duties are managed alongside payroll, including assessing staff, handling contributions and meeting declaration deadlines, so the pension side does not become a separate administrative burden.
Yes. Much of the work — bookkeeping, accounts preparation, Self Assessment, payroll and VAT reporting — can be handled digitally, with documents shared securely and questions answered by phone, email or video call. Many healthcare professionals prefer this because it fits around clinic hours and avoids travel. Where a face-to-face discussion is more useful, that can be arranged at a time that works for you.
It starts with a conversation about how you work and what you need. We will ask about your income sources, your current structure, your filing and payment deadlines, and any outstanding records or returns. From there we can confirm which services are relevant, what information we will need from you, and what the ongoing arrangement would look like. If you are switching accountants, we can also explain how the handover from your existing adviser is managed.
