a patient patient

Hi,

Does it sound strange to native speakers, if I say "a patient patient"? I mean a sick person who is patient . For example, "He is a very patient patient I have seen".

Thank you for your comments.

It makes perfectly good sense. However, it still sounds a bit like an intended play with words.
