How To Treat Subdural Hematoma Caused By Nose Fracture?

My 19 year old son fractured his nose surfing this morning and the doctor office just called an hour ago to tell me they were worried about his subdural hematoma and wanted the specialist to see him immediately. He was in class and so they said they would look at his scans again and get back to me, of course now I have received no call from the specialist and no one answers the phone. I am very concerned, what should I do?
