What are common tax deductions for doctors?

Discount Medical Scrubs

I'm a new doctor. Can I deduct my state medical license fee (), my state controlled substances license fee (0), my DEA license fee (0), work related books/literature (0), cost of scrub suits (0), cost of medical equipment like stethoscope (0), and other work-related expenses?? I also paid 5 to take the 3rd step of the USMLE, but my understanding is that is NOT deductible.

    Of all the items you mention, the scrubs, your work related books and stethoscope could be possibly be deducted.

    These added up to $500. If you made more than $25000, none of this will end up increasing your schedule A. If you weren’t itemizing anyway, it’s a moot point.

    (As a new doctor, the fees for licensing aren’t deductable. My costs in sitting for the CPA exam weren’t either.)
