Extensive information on the full range of contraceptive options including vasectomy is available on the Family Planning Association website.

The Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare under the auspices of The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (September 2013) issued clear guidance on vasectomy provision with a clear recommendation to use either a minimally invasive vasectomy or non-scalpel vasectomy technique to expose the vas deferens rather than conventional vasectomy as it has been shown to be associated with a lower risk of post-operative complications. (http://www.fsrh.org/pdfs/MaleFemaleSterilisation.pdf).

The technique employed by Dr Boone is a minimally invasive method which does not employ use of a scalpel and fully complies with the guidance above.
