A system for communicating with a medical implant in a body of a user is provided. The system comprises a command generator and a memory, wherein the command generator is configured to receive a voice command from the user and to reduce noise, generated by the body, from the received voice command to generate a noise-reduced voice command. The command generator is further configured to compare the noise-reduced voice command with previously stored voice commands and to transmit a command signal to the implant in case the noise-reduced voice command corresponds to any of the previously received commands stored in the memory.
