“Our medical school has worked with DFS since 2019. They are extremely talented and have provided us with many different forms of marketing and communications support, including social media posts, graphic design, videography, podcasts, and public relations. We have kept DFS on contract for several years.

Dorothy is a hands-on principal and has built a team that will exceed expectations regarding high quality products, strategic approaches to marketing, and client-centered engagement. They have never failed to respond quickly when something was needed urgently – even in a pinch the work product was outstanding.

Dorothy and the DFS team have helped elevate USCSOMG’s brand immensely and I highly recommend them for your brand development and support. They never fail to deliver.”

Dean, School of Medicine Greenville

“DFS has been both inspired and transformative for our brand and customer experience, including the creative and effective presence they have engineered via social media. Dorothy and her team are much more than a business partner at Canal. We consider their commitment and entrepreneurial approach to be an integral extension of our company.”

– Paul Brocklebank, CPCU
President & Chief Executive Officer

“I have known Dorothy Self for 15+ years and have followed her projects and accomplishments during that same period of time. After moving my company’s headquarters to Greenville, South Carolina, in 2014 I wanted to work with a firm locally to focus on growing our social media presence. DFS Creative Concepts, and more specifically Dorothy Self, was an easy choice amongst all of the different options available. I have been very pleased so far.”

– Edwin Shoffner

“Working with Dorothy and her DFS team in collaboration with our USC School of Medicine Greenville Communications Team has helped to catapult our Lifestyle Medicine program onto the national stage. The marketing materials produced for our LMEd program have proudly been showcased globally and well-received on Capitol Hill. Our partnership has benefited me as I effectively work with policymakers to advance our mission in medical education. Thank you, Dorothy and DFS!”
