About VEI Clinic Apgujeong
A small clinic built around one idea: a specialist doctor who takes time to understand you, explains clearly and recommends only what you need.
3F, 162 Apgujeong-ro, Gangnam-gu
Apgujeong Station (Line 3), Exit 5 · 1 min walk
VEI Clinic Apgujeong (베이의원) is a doctor-led internal medicine clinic in Gangnam, Seoul, a minute from Apgujeong Station Exit 5. Medical Director Dr. HyunSung Park, a board-certified internal medicine specialist and gastroenterology subspecialist, sees patients one to one in English for everyday illness, long-term conditions, testing, IV therapy, weight management and preventive care.
Who we are
VEI Clinic Apgujeong, known in Korean as 베이의원, is an outpatient medical clinic on the third floor of Beneheim City, the building with Jamba Juice at 162 Apgujeong-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. It is about a minute's walk from Exit 5 of Apgujeong Station on Line 3.
We look after adults who live in Seoul and people visiting from abroad. Many of our patients are expats, students, business travelers and long-term residents who want a specialist doctor and a clear explanation in English. Korean-speaking patients are, of course, equally welcome.
Our approach to care
We practice internal medicine with a preventive and practical focus. That means listening carefully, examining properly, choosing tests that will genuinely change your plan, and explaining results in plain language. We would rather tell you that you do not need a test or treatment than sell you one.
Where wellness treatments such as IV vitamins or regenerative medicine are concerned, we are open about the strength of the evidence and the risks, so you can make an informed decision. When you need care we do not provide, such as endoscopy, surgery, emergency care, dentistry or plastic surgery, we can refer you to a hospital and help you understand what comes next.
Meet the Medical Director, Dr. HyunSung Park
All care at the clinic is led by Dr. HyunSung Park, who has been treating patients in Korea since 2010. His training and professional background include:
- Board-certified internal medicine specialist (Korea)
- Gastroenterology subspecialist
- ECFMG certified (U.S.)
- Graduate of the State University of New York
- Former clinical professor, Dongguk University Ilsan Hospital
- Member of the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR), the American Gastroenterological Association and the Korean Institute of Functional Medicine
What we offer
The clinic brings several areas of care under one roof, all supervised by the same doctor so nothing is looked at in isolation:
- Internal medicine and primary care: colds, flu, infections, digestive problems, blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol, thyroid and headache care, plus abdominal and thyroid ultrasound
- Checkups and diagnostics: blood and lab tests, allergy, H. pylori, SIBO, hormone and nutritional testing, and executive health checks
- IV therapy and injections: doctor-prescribed drips, vitamin B12 and D shots, and flu and hepatitis B vaccines
- Medical weight loss and body contouring: GLP-1 medicines when appropriate, and non-surgical devices
- Stem cell consultations and longevity medicine: evidence-based advice within Korean regulation
Languages and international patients
Consultations are held in English or Korean, directly with the doctor. Being understood matters in medicine: small details, such as when a pain started or exactly which medicine you take, often change the diagnosis. Speaking with the doctor yourself, rather than through an interpreter, keeps those details intact.
For international patients, we can provide an English summary of your visit, your test results and an itemized receipt for insurance claims. If you bring prescriptions or records from home, Dr. Park can review them and, where a medicine is not sold in Korea, suggest an equivalent. If you are only in Seoul for a short stay, tell us your travel dates so we can plan tests and results around them.
Who the clinic suits, and its limits
VEI Clinic suits adults who want unhurried, specialist-led outpatient care in English, whether for a one-off problem or ongoing follow-up. It is not an emergency department. For chest pain, severe shortness of breath, signs of stroke, heavy bleeding, fainting or a severe allergic reaction, call 119 in Korea or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
Children, pregnancy care and procedures requiring a hospital are usually better handled elsewhere, and we are happy to point you in the right direction.
Hours, location and getting in touch
We are open Monday, Thursday and Friday from 10:00 to 19:00, Tuesday from 10:00 to 20:00 and Saturday from 10:00 to 16:00, with lunch from 13:00 to 14:00 on weekdays. We are closed on Wednesdays and Sundays.
The simplest way to reach us is by WhatsApp at +82-10-5700-7597. Tell us what you need and when you would like to come, and we will confirm a time and any preparation. Costs are always explained before any test or treatment, and itemized English receipts are available for insurance claims.
