The street-level station has side platforms. It is located near the intersection of Alvarado Rd. and Reservoir Dr. The station is located across the street from the UC San Diego Health East Campus Medical Center. Besides the hospital and the College Area, portions of the residential neighborhood of Del Cerro are also accessible from the stop.
In December of 2023, the station was renamed from Alvarado Medical Center station to Alvarado Station due to the name change of the adjacent hospital from Alvarado Medical Center to UC San Diego Health East Campus Medical Center.
