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.

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.

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.

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.

FAQs About Medical Accountants

Medical Accountants handle the accounting and tax affairs of doctors, GPs, consultants, locum doctors and medical practices, covering areas such as bookkeeping, annual accounts, Self Assessment, payroll and tax planning. The exact mix of work depends on how you earn and whether you work through the NHS, privately, or both. The aim is to keep your records accurate, your filings on time and your tax position clearly explained.

They suit medical professionals at most stages of their career, including salaried doctors with additional private income, locum doctors, medical consultants, private practitioners and medical practice owners or partners. If you have more than one source of income, or you run a practice with staff and overheads, specialist support tends to be more useful. We review your circumstances and recommend support that fits rather than a fixed package.

NHS and private earnings usually need to be brought together when reporting your overall income, and the interaction between them can affect how much tax is due. Records need to be kept separately enough to be clear, while still giving a complete picture for your return. Because treatment depends on individual circumstances, we look at your specific position before advising.

Many medical professionals do need to file a Self Assessment return, particularly where they have private income, locum earnings, consultancy fees, rental income or untaxed income alongside a salary. Whether a return is required depends on your individual circumstances, including your total income and how it is taxed at source. We can confirm your position and manage the filing, including any payments on account.

Professional expenses can include items such as medical indemnity cover, professional body subscriptions, registration fees and training in certain situations. Whether a particular cost qualifies for relief depends on the nature of the expense and your individual circumstances, so each item should be reviewed rather than assumed. We help you identify what is relevant and keep suitable records to support any claim.

For medical practices, bookkeeping typically involves recording income, staff costs, practice overheads and any payments to partners or principals. We can manage the records, reconcile them and prepare the figures needed for accounts and tax reporting. Keeping this organised through the year also makes the year-end process considerably smoother.

VAT treatment in a medical context can be complex, as some services are exempt while others are standard rated or fall outside the scope entirely. It depends on the specific services provided and how the business is structured, so a blanket answer is rarely appropriate. Where VAT is relevant, we review your situation and help with registration, returns and record keeping.

Switching is usually simpler than people expect. We ask about your current arrangements, contact your existing accountant where needed to obtain the records, and confirm what information is required to take over the work. From there, we set up the ongoing support and make sure nothing is missed at the next deadline.
