To "page" as a verb in this context means to contact or call for someone by sending them a message or giving them a call. The word "page" as a verb was previously used for contacting people with a "pager", which is an electronic device that receives messages by beeping and sending signals. However, pagers aren't very common to use anymore, and so "page" as a verb does not always refer to using a pager to contact someone. Ex: I'll page the doctor and let her know that you're ready to see her.
