Geralt is always reachable by the network. Unless it's an emergency, expect not to hear back for a few hours, if not a few days.
To talk to him in person, you'll need to be in Cadens or go to his domain, a snowy mountain fortress. Yard is open; doors are locked. If he isn't around, leave a delivery with the white wolf.
[ Perhaps Castiel may see it differently, but Geralt does not and he isn't one to be delicate about it.
It's been weeks. If Dean has survived, then where the fuck is he? Why have they not heard from him? He's either not conscious or in any state to be considered alive except by the most technical definition—or something else is going on. ]
[ there's a pause in writing back, cas reading over those words and feeling a disconnect, nearly affronted at the suggestion any other status than 'alive' would be preferred. ]
Less concerning than dead.
[ anything else is salvable. catatonic or halfway to dead or somehow possessed - it's salvable. ]
[ Is it? Some of his trepidation is admittedly due to Lucifer's words about the Mark. How death is not a solution.
Geralt can recognize that may have been the purpose of telling him this in the first place, but a deeper instinct does not believe it is that simple. Not because he trusts Lucifer, but because it feels like a mistake to view Lucifer—or anyone—in absolutes. ]
Tell me if he makes contact. I'll see what I can track.
[ dean winchester, for better or worse, is castiel's absolute, his complete blind spot. whatever bond tied them together in hell, in the years since, there isn't a world where the value of dean's life is surpassed by any more foreboding consequence. ]
I will. Thank you, Geralt. Sam and I will search the forest in the Horizon. Perhaps there's clues, if he's revisited it.

The dark woods, outside the roadhouse. They're from Purgatory. I didn't make them - Dean did.
He's still here.

Whatever state he's in, we'll handle.
