  You might try one of these places... https://www.google.com/#sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&source=hp&q=lab%20supplies%20Winston-salem&pbx=1&oq=&aq=&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&fp=793c92bef9ad073d&biw=1728&bih=930&pf=p&pdl=500 ...but it is doubtful you will be able to buy petri dishes 'pre-prepared with blood agar', that would be like buying cooking pans 'pre-filled with lunch'....scientists typically prepare the dishes themselves, to suit whatever the experiment is... Do you know anyone at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine? Evidently they have the ability to prepare petri dishes with blood agar; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC186600/pdf/applmicro00013-0113.pdf
