Doctors nabbing our wild parties! (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

groups

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

'parties' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both groups as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'doctors nabbing our wild' is the wordplay.
'doctors' becomes 'gps' (GP is an example).
'nabbing' indicates putting letters inside.
'wild' indicates an anagram.
'our' is an anagram of 'rou'.
'gps' placed around 'rou' is 'GROUPS'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for groups that I've seen before include "Lots of" , "Clusters" , "associations" , "Numbers of associated individuals" , "Numbers of people or things classed together" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
