Gaius wasn't a slave but as court physician he had a similar status like everyone else in Camelot who wasn't of noble blood. Basically, they were all servants, from cooks, stable guys maid- and men servants to the common soldiers. To be a free citizen of a kingdom meant that they had the right to buy/own land and probably even to have servants themselves. If I'm not mistaken, as a free man Gaius was even allowed to leave Camelot (and his job) without the king's permission. Maybe it was one level below nobility.
