Has she had any treatment earlier? If treated early clubfoot can be corrected just by stretching and serial casts. Your niece is already 14 years and may have crossed that age of getting a full correction without surgery. This can be decided in consultation with an Orthopedic Surgeon or Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon.
