Stopping near, doctor primarily should achieve such a manner (7)
I believe the answer is:
bedside
'such a manner' is the definition.
(bedside manner is a kind of manner)
'stopping near doctor primarily' is the wordplay.
'stopping' means one lot of letters goes inside another (stopping can mean blocking a gap).
'near' becomes 'beside' (I've seen this in another clue).
'primarily' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letter of 'doctor' is 'd'.
'beside' going around 'd' is 'BEDSIDE'.
'should achieve' is the link.
(Other definitions for bedside that I've seen before include "Doctor needs a good ... manner" , "A GP needs a good . . . . . . . manner" , "(Formerly?) a doctor's manner" , "Manner shown to the sick?" .)
