Newly influential, shunning hospital department - it's not becoming (relatively?) (8)
I believe the answer is:
unfilial
'not becoming relatively?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'newly influential shunning hospital department' is the wordplay.
'newly' indicates an anagram.
'shunning' suggests deleting specific letters.
'hospital department' becomes 'ENT' (abbreviation for Ear, Nose and Throat department).
'influential' with 'ent' taken out is 'influial'.
'influial' is an anagram of 'UNFILIAL'.
'it's' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for unfilial that I've seen before include "Ill faun I alter to be unbecoming in a son" , "disloyal" .)
