Forbearing person in doctor's waiting room? (7)
I believe the answer is:
patient
This might be a double definition.
'forbearing person in doctor's' is the first definition.
'patient' can be an answer for 'forbearing' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'person in doctor's' bit.
'waiting room?' is the second definition.
'patient' can be an answer for 'waiting' (someone patient is happy to wait). I am unsure of the 'room?' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for patient that I've seen before include "Unhurried" , "sick person" , "Person requiring medical care" , "One receives medical care" , "Prepared to wait" .)
