homeopath

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

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

'duck in domestic driveway?' is the wordplay.
'duck' becomes 'o' (resembles zero - 'duck' in cricket).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'domestic' becomes 'home' (similar in meaning).
'driveway?' becomes 'path' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'home'+'path'='homepath'
'o' going inside 'homepath' is 'HOMEOPATH'.

'from' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for homeopath that I've seen before include "Quack perhaps" , "Alternative practitioner" , "Health practitioner" , "he treats you, naturally" , "one offers treatment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
