doctor

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'change' is the definition.
(doctoring is a kind of changing)

'on the other hand' is the wordplay.
'on' means one lot of letters goes inside another (as in clothing 'on' a person).
'the' becomes 't' (the is pronounced as a 't' sound in some dialects).
'other' becomes 'doco' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'hand' becomes 'R' (abbreviation for right, as in the right-hand side).
't' going inside 'doco' is 'docto'.
'docto'+'r'='DOCTOR'

'be enough? bankers to count' is the link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
