Was Dr. Hill Also Part of the Coven?

There are two very clear indications that Dr Hill is not in the coven and you mentioned the first one given in the film; Guy's reaction to Rosemary's consideration of a second opinion. The other indication is when Saperstein surreptitiously palms the bottle of his demon baby medicine when he and Guy and Dr Shand are ushered into the room by Dr Hill to retrieve Rosemary. He doesn't want Dr Hill to find the bottle of pills.

I don't think he is. Rosemary's description of what has been happening sounds like the ravings of a disordered mind, and most doctors might well have assumed she was disturbed. (Indeed, the film could be interpreted in this way, with the supernatural elements just part of her paranoia or whatever.) Handing her over to the people she fears, though, is certainly morally questionable to me, but could indicate that Hill is just a normal-strength medical creep rather than part of the coven.

Dr. Hill was not part of any witch/devil plot.
What he was guilty of was allowing a terrified and possibly mentally unstable woman back into the custody of a man she risked her life to run away fromher husband. -

It's important for the story that Hill is
not
part of the coven, because it shows how perfectly Machiavellian they are. They're so powerful that nobody suspects them. They know just how crazy you would sound if you told the truth to an outsider -

I thought he says in his call we need more blood for sacro.. Sugar. Because they need her blood in thier magic to make devil baby. He might be saying sample not sacro.. Because he detected an animolie. If he did, why didn't he follow up with it. Or maybe sthe sample was to make sure the baby was devilbaby. Either way the stammer slip in the call tells me hill was in on it

He found an abnormality in her blood and wanted to follow up, but not alarm her needlessly. Since Guy lied to him and said they were leaving town, he just figured someone else would follow up.
When she came back, nine months pregnant and ranting, he just figured it was hormones, especially since she accused a well respected colleague.
