Medic with urges to supply medicines here (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

drugstore

'medicines here' is the definition.
(shop selling medicines)

'medic with urges to supply' is the wordplay.
'medic' becomes 'dr' (doctor).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'supply' indicates an anagram (in a supple way).
'urges'+'to'='urgesto'
'urgesto' anagrammed gives 'ugstore'.
'dr'+'ugstore'='DRUGSTORE'

(Other definitions for drugstore that I've seen before include "An American chemist shop, also sells other things" , "American chemist's shop, also sells refreshments" , "Shop selling various items" , "(American) pharmacy" , "US shop" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
