Chamberlain's doctor role (7)
I believe the answer is:
kildare
'chamberlain's doctor role' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for kildare that I've seen before include "doctor from long ago" , "part of Ireland" , "County of Ireland" , "County to W of Dublin" , "somewhere in Ireland" .)
