Big plot hole
when the pretend Dr comes to the house to talk to Allison, where are the butler and the maid?
shareThat bothered me, too. I suppose we are asked to presume that Mr. Courtland gave them the night off(?).

Not a plot hole. We don't see it happen, but the most plausible explanation is that Alison's husband set it up so that she'd be home alone. Is it a plot hole that we don't literally see Alison's husband making the appointment with the pretend Dr. Rhinehart? It's not like the filmmakers forgot about the house staff - the imposter is seen knocking for a very long time at the door and Alison looks around for the butler (calling out his name) before she answers the door.
sharei assumed they were out and the husband knew
