Nurses go out with doctors (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

surgeons

'doctors' is the definition.
(I know this)

'nurses go out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'nurses'+'go'='nursesgo'
'nursesgo' anagrammed gives 'SURGEONS'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Another definition for surgeons that I've seen is " Medical operators".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
