Tendancy of medic providing end to treatment (5)
I believe the answer is:
drift
'tendancy' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'medic providing end to treatment' is the wordplay.
'medic' becomes 'dr'.
'providing' becomes 'if' (I've seen this in other clues).
'end to' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'treatment' is 't'.
'dr'+'if'+'t'='DRIFT'
'of' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for drift that I've seen before include "Tenor" , "Snow heaped up by wind" , "go with the tide" , "Go with the flow" , "General meaning or flow" .)
