1. A medical system that can be used by a surgeon through a single interface to perform a medical procedure and retrieve patient data located at a remote computer, comprising:a monitor; a surgical instrument; an input device that can receive an instrument control command, a unique instrument selection command, a data retrieval control command, and a unique data retrieval selection command; a controller that receives the instrument command, the unique instrument selection command, the data retrieval control command, and the unique data retrieval selection command from the input device, wherein the controller controls the surgical instrument in response to the instrument control command; and a network gateway coupled to the controller, the network gateway operable to retrieve patient data from a remote computer in response to the unique data retrieval selection command and the data retrieval control command so that the patient data can be displayed on the monitor. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the patient data is written in an HTML format.3. The system of claim 1, wherein the controller operates in accordance with voice recognition software.4. The system of claim 1, wherein the network gateway includes a search engine.5. The system of claim 1, wherein the monitor is coupled to the surgical instrument.6. The system of claim 1, wherein the instrument control command includes an audible instrument control command, and the data retrieval command includes an audible data retrieval control command.7. The system of claim 1, wherein the patient data includes one or more of the following: an x-ray, MRI, angiography, CAT scan, and patient history.8. The system of claim 1, wherein the network gateway executes a web browser program and transmits a uniform resource locator (URL) over a hospital network to retrieve the patient data from the remote computer.9. A method for retrieving patient data from a remote computer and performing a medical procedure using a single interface, comprising:receiving, at a first interface, a data retrieval control command and a unique data retrieval selection command; retrieving patient data from a remote computer in response to the data retrieval control command and the unique data retrieval selection command; displaying the patient data; receiving, at the first interface, an instrument control command and a unique instrument selection command; and controlling a surgical instrument in response to the instrument control command and the unique instrument selection command. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the patient data is located at a URL location.11. The method of claim 9, wherein displaying the patient data includes displaying an HTML page.12. The method of claim 9, wherein retrieving the patient data includes transmitting a URL over a network that is coupled to the remote computer, and receiving the patient data from the URL over the network.13. The method of claim 9, wherein receiving the data retrieval control command includes detecting a first audible control command, and wherein receiving the instrument control command includes detecting a second audible control command.14. The method of claim 9, wherein the patient data includes one or more of the following: an x-ray, MRI, angiography, CAT scan, and patient history.15. A system comprising:a medical device; a network gateway connected to a computer network and operable to retrieve patient data; and a master controller in communication with the medical device and the network gateway, the master controller operable to receive control commands and voice selection commands, wherein a first voice selection command is associated with the medical device and a second voice selection command is associated with the network gateway, the master controller providing a signal representing a received control command to the medical device when the received control command follows the first voice selection command, the master controller providing the signal representing the received control command to the network gateway when the received control command follows the second voice selection command. 16. The system of claim 15, wherein the received control command is a voice control command.17. The system of claim 15, wherein the signal representing a received control command includes a control information packet.18. The system of claim 15, further comprising:a slave controller in direct communication with the master controller and in direct communication with the medical device, the slave controller operable to receive from the master controller the signal representing the received control command and provide to the medical device a control information packet. 19. The system of claim 15, further comprising:a video output device in communication with the network gateway and operable to display a representation of the patient data.
