Doctor made one cut (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mowed

'cut' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'doctor made one' is the wordplay.
'doctor' becomes 'mo' (medical officer**).
'made one' becomes 'wed' (to wed can mean to make two people one).
'mo'+'wed'='MOWED'

(Another definition for mowed that I've seen is " Cut the grass".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
