Do surgery (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'do surgery' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for operate that I've seen before include "Carry on business" , "Work, run" , "(Of machine) function" , "effect" , "Perform as surgeon does" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Telegraph and The New York Times.
