Apgujeong sits on the south bank of the Han River in Gangnam-gu. North of the station are the large Hyundai apartment complexes, and the station itself connects underground to the Hyundai Department Store main store. It is a residential and shopping district with older, well-off households, which shapes the clinics: many are long-running practices with a local client base as well as foreign patients.

Most clinics are in office buildings on Apgujeong-ro, the main road running southwest from the station toward Sinsa Station, and on the side streets just south of it. This stretch has a dense mix of plastic surgery and dermatology clinics, with dental and eye clinics in between. Further east, Apgujeong-ro continues toward the Rodeo area and Cheongdam.

The area is flat and easy to walk, and the station is a single Line 3 stop from Sinsa, so many patients compare clinics in both areas on the same day.
