UK tax accountants for doctors, consultants, GPs and locums
We help medical professionals deal with Self Assessment, NHS pension annual allowance, Scheme Pays, McCloud / RPSS reviews, locum income, private practice tax, IR35, foreign income, capital gains and HMRC matters.
A PAYE salary does not always mean a simple tax position.
Doctors can have pension growth, private income, locum earnings, overseas income, professional expenses, company income or historic HMRC issues in the same year. We review the position before deciding whether it is a tax return, advisory matter or HMRC disclosure.
Annual allowance tax can arise even when salary is taxed under PAYE.
We review pension input amounts, tapering, carry-forward, Scheme Pays and revised pension statements before the figures are reported.
Private practice and locum income need careful classification.
We consider whether the income is employment, self-employment, partnership or company income and how records should be kept.
Incorrect reporting can lead to enquiries, penalties or disclosures.
Where historic years are wrong or incomplete, we help decide whether amendment, disclosure or an HMRC response is required.
We look at the route from income to HMRC reporting.
A good tax return starts before the figures are entered. We check the income type, pension position, tax reliefs, reporting route and HMRC risk.

View service →The hidden tax issue for many doctors is not income. It is pension growth.
NHS pension tax can create a charge even where salary has already been taxed through PAYE. The position may involve pension input statements, annual allowance, tapering, carry-forward, Scheme Pays and revised McCloud / RPSS figures.
We review the pension tax position before deciding whether the matter belongs on a Self Assessment return, through Scheme Pays, through HMRC’s pension adjustment route or as separate advisory work.
Different doctors. Different tax pressure points.
The same tax return can look very different depending on your role, pension records, income mix and working arrangements.

We look beyond the return.
Filing is only one part of the work. The real value is identifying the tax issue correctly, using the right records and explaining the position clearly.
Doctor-specific tax issues are built into the review.
NHS pension tax, private income, locum arrangements, foreign income and professional expenses are considered from the start.
We prepare work with the HMRC position in mind.
Where figures need support, we consider records, explanations, deadlines, penalties and disclosure routes.
UK-wide support without unnecessary meetings.
Most work can be handled by video, phone and secure document exchange, with office meetings by appointment where required.
A calm route from tax concern to clear action.
We scope the matter before asking for unnecessary documents or quoting for the wrong service.
Initial review
We identify whether the work is tax return, pension tax advice, HMRC response, disclosure or planning.
Records request
We request only the relevant records, such as P60s, payslips, pension input statements, RPSS, income and expense records.
Technical review
We review the figures, tax treatment and reporting route before confirming the next practical step.
Filing or advice
We prepare the tax return, written advice, Scheme Pays support, disclosure or HMRC correspondence as agreed.
