Hi clive,
Here at technology in motion we have a orthotist who does callipers for polio patients on a regular basis, however we are private therefore costs can range anywhere from a few hundred pounds upwards depending on what treatment is needed. Your pt could just come for a consultation to have her present callipered reviewed? Our details are on the web site which is technologyinmotion.co.uk . Hope this helps
