[...] le modèle biopsychosocial [...] tient compte des interrelations entre les aspects biologiques, psychologiques et sociaux de la maladie [...] Tandis que, dans le modèle biomédical classique, les données relatives à l'environnement humain du patient restent en dehors du champ de la science et de l'enquête critique, le modèle bio-psycho-social postule qu'il importe d'approcher les aspects personnels, interpersonnels et sociaux de sa vie avec la même rigueur et la même acuité critique que celles que l'on applique aux phénomènes biologiques.

En 1977 Engel postuló la necesidad de un modelo médico holístico que él llamó biopsicosocial como respuesta a otro modelo, el biomédico [...] Su propuesta tuvo una buena acogida por parte de los sectores deseosos de incorporar la empatía y la compasión en la práctica médica. Examinaremos de manera crítica las dos vertientes que nos propone el modelo biopsicosocial: a) un modelo de causación superador del modelo clásico de causa-efecto, y en este sentido se postula como "un nuevo paradigma en la medicina", y b) la apuesta por dar la palabra al paciente en el proceso asistencial, pasando de ser mero objeto a ser sujeto del acto clínico.
