So now I have no idea what to think. It is going to be costly, not to mention the pain all the traveling will cause me, so I was hoping somebody with CRPS has either been to the Stanford Pain Center or heard about it. I would greatly appreciate any insight into this matter. Thanks so much!

Last I heard, Stanford had closed its inpatient pain program along with a number of other hospitals around the same time, including Daniel Freeman here in Los Angeles, okay, Inglewood. From what I heard third-hand, it had everything to do with not enough insurance reimbursement per bed.
That said, I would be quite happy to stand corrected as to Stanford.

AS SET FORTH BELOW, I STAND CORRECTED.
