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![]()

The core work is familiar, but the detail is healthcare-specific. It includes handling Self Assessment where NHS salary, private fees, locum income, teaching or medico-legal work are combined, advising on the allowable expenses that apply to clinical practice such as professional indemnity insurance, medical defence subscriptions and professional registration fees, managing payroll where locum and part-time clinical arrangements are common, and dealing with the VAT complications that arise when NHS and private services are provided together. A healthcare-focused accountant also understands partnership and limited company structures used by practices and clinics, and how those choices affect profit extraction, National Insurance and compliance obligations.
They suit the wide range of people and organisations working in healthcare. That includes GPs and GP practices, hospital doctors and consultants with private or locum income, dentists and dental practices, pharmacists and pharmacy owners, nurses, physiotherapists, psychologists, therapists, optometrists, podiatrists, chiropractors, care providers and carers, along with the clinics and healthcare businesses that employ or contract with them. If you are newly self-employed, joining a partnership, incorporating a practice or managing a growing team, the same specialist support applies, just with a different emphasis depending on your structure and income.
Yes, and this is one of the most common situations in healthcare. NHS pay is usually taxed through PAYE, while private fees, locum work and other self-employed income are reported through Self Assessment, so both need to be brought together accurately on the return. The interaction between the two can affect your overall tax position and, in some cases, your payments on account. We also make sure records are kept clearly enough to show which income belongs to which source, which is helpful if HMRC ever raises a query and important for anyone claiming expenses against private earnings.
Mixed income makes VAT one of the trickier areas in healthcare accounting. Some healthcare services are exempt, others are not, and where a business makes both exempt and taxable supplies it may fall into partial exemption, which limits how much VAT can be reclaimed on costs. We review how your income is treated, advise on whether registration is required or already appropriate, prepare and submit returns, and help you structure records so the VAT position is properly supported. If your services or income mix change, the position should be reviewed rather than assumed.
Commonly claimed items include professional indemnity and medical defence subscriptions, professional body registration fees, specialist equipment and instruments, medical clothing and uniforms, mileage and travel between sites, continuing professional development costs and a reasonable proportion of home office costs where administration is genuinely carried out at home. Eligibility depends on your circumstances and there are rules around items used both privately and professionally, so each claim needs to be justified and supported by records. The larger risk is usually underclaiming because receipts have been lost rather than deliberate overclaiming.
The relationship can be run entirely remotely where that suits you better. Documents, records and correspondence can be shared securely online, and meetings can take place by video or phone around your clinical commitments. Many healthcare professionals prefer this because clinics and rotas leave limited time for travel. If you would rather meet in person, that can also be arranged. What matters most is that you have reliable access to your accountant and a clear understanding of what is happening with your accounts and tax returns.
Yes. Business structure is one of the most frequent questions we advise on, whether you are a sole practitioner weighing up incorporation, a group of clinicians considering a partnership, or an established practice reviewing whether its current setup still works. The decision affects how profits are taxed, National Insurance treatment, how income is extracted, and the compliance work required each year. We look at your income levels, how profits are shared and your plans for growth, then explain the practical implications so the choice is made with the numbers in front of you rather than on general assumptions.
Start with a conversation about your current position. We will ask how you are structured, how you are paid, what accounting work is already in place, who handles your bookkeeping and payroll if anyone, and whether anything is outstanding or overdue. From there we can explain which services are relevant to you, what information we would need to get started and how the ongoing arrangement would work. If you are partway through a tax year or have filing obligations approaching, that is worth mentioning early so priorities can be set sensibly.
