Obtain favourable treatment (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

procure

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'obtain' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'favourable treatment' is the wordplay.
'favourable' becomes 'pro' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'treatment' becomes 'cure' (cure is a kind of treatment).
'pro'+'cure'='PROCURE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for procure that I've seen before include "Obtain; solicit" , "Get by special effort" , "Acquire" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
