Doctor's client, long-suffering (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

patient

I believe this is a double definition.

'doctor's client' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'long-suffering' is the second definition.
('patient' can be similar in meaning to 'long-suffering')

(Other definitions for patient that I've seen before include "doctor's client" , "Cool" , "Calm" , "Prepared to wait" , "One being treated" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
