Methods and apparatus for controlling an implantable medical device, such as an implantable cardiac stimulating device, using voice commands are provided. A voice command given by a user is converted into digital data. The digital data are processed in order to recognize the voice command. Once the voice command is recognized, it is telemetered to the implantable device. In a preferred embodiment, the voice command must be confirmed by the user before it is executed.
