Can all vasectomy's be reversed?!


Question: My husband had a vasectomy in 2006 while I was pregnant with my 3rd child. I have told him that I may want to try for a boy in 4 to 5 years when all three of my children are in school. He said that the doctor that did his vasectomy told him that the way he does it is non-reversable. How can some be reversable and some not? Is vasectomy reversal a common procedure? What is the success rate? Thank you for your answers.
