This study presents the development of an expert system for diagnosing gastric diseases using the forward chaining method. The system is designed to assist patients in identifying possible conditions such as Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), dyspepsia, and peptic ulcer based on reported symptoms through a web-based interface. The diagnosis process relies on a rule-based knowledge system that maps symptoms to disease categories and provides preliminary results along with simple treatment recommendations. The implementation demonstrates that the system can facilitate early screening and improve patient awareness. Nonetheless, it remains limited to common gastric diseases and depends on subjective symptom reporting. Accordingly, the system is intended as a supporting tool for early detection and patient guidance, rather than a substitute for clinical examination
