Chosen answer: No, Dr. Hill was not a Satan worshiper. He was just Rosemary's first obstetrician, referred to her by a friend. However, her neighbors, the Castevettes, later convince her to instead go to their friend, Dr. Abe Sapperstein, who is a warlock.

He simply didn't believe what she told him so he called her husband to come get her.
Dr. Hill was indulging Rosemary to calm her. The detrimental effects of fear and stress are real. He never believed her claims were true, but he understood how sincere she was in her belief. He was considering becoming involved in her care until he learned the name of her obstetrician. Dr. Abraham Sapirstein was renowned in his field. Dr. Hill respected him. It would have been foolish to interfere with a patient of Dr Sapirstein. So, again, Rosemary was deceived and betrayed by a man she trusted.
